Henri Plantin (1890 – 1966) acted as a precursor. In 1923, well before the creation of the Appellation d’Origine Contrôlée Châteauneuf-du-Pape in 1936, he acquired this property isolated from the village and surrounded by woods. A visionary, he endeavored to group the plots around the estate and sensed the exceptional character of the terroir of the plateau which dominates Mont-Redon, then covered with scrubland and groves. A pioneer, he decided to clear this unexploited land and plant vines in the rolled pebbles. The following generations helped, little by little, to expand the estate to 100 hectares of vines in one piece, earning it the pride of being the largest estate in the Châteauneuf-du-Pape appellation. In 1980, the farm expanded with the acquisition of a 15-hectare vineyard in the Côtes-du-Rhône Appellation, then another of 35 hectares in the Lirac Appellation in 1997. Adjacent, they are both located on the commune of Roquemaure. Château Mont-Redon, owned by the Plantin family, Heirs Abeille-Fabre, is currently managed by the 4th generation.
