Since founding his domaine in 2001, Olivier Pithon has become one of the benchmark growers in the rugged hills of Calce, in France’s Roussillon region. Working organically from the start and fully biodynamic since 2010, Olivier farms roughly 19 hectares of schist, marl, and limestone soils, aided by cows, bees, and an unwavering respect for living ecosystems.

In the cellar, fermentations rely on native yeasts, sulfur use is minimal, and élevage takes place in concrete, stainless steel, or neutral wood—always with the goal of expressing the freshness, depth, and energy of Calce’s terroir. His flagship wines, including the Laïs series (named for his beloved cow) and Mon P’tit Pithon (a more playful, early-drinking line), showcase Mediterranean varieties.

Without formal training, Philippe and Emma immersed themselves in books, observed other producers, and learned from their mistakes. "It’s a bit like poker," Philippe remarked. "You dearly pay one or two times, then you watch out! This is the basis of learning." They released their first vintage in 2001 after acquiring several plots. From the outset, they embraced biodynamics, earning organic certification in 2008 and becoming one of fifteen organic producers in Saint-Chinian.

Nestled amidst the 'garigue', their vineyards are isolated and teeming with biodiversity. Most plots are plowed by horse, and the family creates their own compost. They manage low yields to encourage the vines' natural immune defense.

Grilled meats, hearty stews, and aged cheeses.

Aromas of dark berries, a hint of pepper, and a touch of smokiness. The palate is bold and expressive, with fine tannins and a lingering finish.
