Presentation
The name Les Couversets is the name of a very old family from Chateauneuf-du-Pape. The last descendant of this family to bear the name was Suzanne (a distant ancestor of the QUIOT Family).
The land was passed down from generation to generation and is now completely integrated into the QUIOT Family Vineyards.
Produced with care on our estates, or selected during a strict and methodical process, the wines of Les Couversets are modern, dynamic wines but respecting the long family tradition of wines of character.
