In 1947 the domain was founded by the grand father of Marie-France Masson.
Her father Emile Bressy ran the the domain until he died in 1976 and left the domain to Marie-France. She is married to Thierry Masson who works hard in 
the vineyards 
The next generation Paul Emile Masson helps his parents at the estate and is taking over the winemaking. 
The vineyards cover 30 ha in Rastau.

Several cuvées of Rasteau are made. The difference between them comes foremost from the age of the vines. Not all of the cuvées are made every year.
