FOUR GENERATIONS OF WINEMAKERS
It was 1925 when Pierre and Marie BLANC left their hometown in Lozère to settle in Uzès. With the purchase of a farmhouse, they established Domaine Saint Firmin.
Driven by true passion, they built their very own winery from the ground up.
Their son, Emile, heir to this passion for viticulture, took over in 1950. He expanded the estate by planting noble grape varieties across the sun-drenched hills of Uzès.
Following in Emile’s footsteps in the 1980s, two of his sons, Didier and Robert, shared that same devotion to the craft. Together, they developed the estate’s retail presence and opened the tasting cellar to the public.
They have since been joined by Guillaume, Robert’s son, who “fell into the wine barrel” at a very young age. With the family’s savoir-faire carefully passed down through the years, the legacy is in good hands. The transition to the two brothers inspired the name of one of our signature vintages: “Les Deux Frères.”
Not just a vineyard
In 1925, Domaine Saint Firmin began with just 5 hectares of grapevines. By the 1970s, the estate had expanded to 40 hectares. Today, Saint Firmin cultivates 70 hectares of land, consisting of 45 hectares of vineyards and 25 hectares of cereals.
The oldest original vines of Syrah and Grenache are meticulously tended to produce our prestigious high-end vintage, “L’Absolu.”
