In the 20th century, alongside Baron le Roy, Henry Tacussel was one of the founders of the Châteauneuf-du-Pape appellation. The current estate, founded in 1976 by Annette Tacussel and her husband Robert Moulin, is passed down to their three daughters and is operated by Didier Latour, the cellar master. The estate carries on the legacy of Henry and his son Albert Tacussel. Since the reputation of Châteauneuf-du-Pape is well established, the Domaine Moulin-Tacussel has been able to enrich tradition with cultivation methods that respect the environment.
Boasting a unique terroir – a clay-limestone soil, protected by rolled pebbles and favored by a sunny climate – the 7.5 hectares of Domaine Moulin-Tacussel are spread over 10 plots that allow a judicious grape variety. The cellar master, Didier Latour, makes sure to follow the strict rules of the appellation: a yield limited to 35 hectolitres per hectare, manual and selective harvesting, a reflected assembly among the 13 allowed grape varieties.
