Today planted on chalk, lime and sand-stone soils, 1250 ha. Of tender green vineyards produce one of the best Rhône Valley Village wines to the north of Avignon.
It is here that the Ameillaud vineyard was established in the eighteen century.

In 1929, Albert Rieu, an imposing figure in the local wine world and owner of the Ameillaud helped to create the Cairanne Wine Growers Union, set up to protect the interests of the village's grape growers and promote their wines.

Since 1983, an englishman, Nick Thompson has been running the property alongside his wife Sabine, Albert Rieu's grand-daughter. Together, they conjugate their efforts to improve the quality of the Ameillaud wines and develop distribution :

Increased production areas of Syrah and Grenache whilst protecting an average age of the vineyard of 35 to 40 years old.
