Presentation
Our Châteauneuf-du-Pape estate is spread over 38 plots of land. The origins of the Quiot Family coming partly from Châteauneuf-du-Pape, Florence and Jean-Baptiste decided to give the name "38 Parcels" to a variation of wines from the Southern Rhône Valley & Provence.
This range of wine is perfectly suited to a current drinking style. The Quiot Family is always looking for modern wines, while respecting tradition and the appellation.

Location
If the vines found their chosen lands very early on in Gigondas, the wines achieved their consecration in 1971, the year in which the appellation “Gigondas, Cru des Côtes du Rhône” was obtained. For two millennia, the village in the heart of the Dentelles de Montmirail has lived mainly from its vines. Today, nearly 200 winegrowers perpetuate this tradition, including the QUIOT Family!
