Vineyards & Biodiversity Conference

7 December 2023

The viticulture of tomorrow begins today!

On January 18 and 19, more than 150 participants gathered for the second edition of the Vineyard and Biodiversity symposium at the Palais des Papes in Avignon.

Two days of conferences led by French and international speakers: Laetitia ALLEMAND, Léo MARIANI, Régis AMBROISE, Verena WELLER, Valérie LEMPEREUR, Eglantine THIERY, Simon RICARD, Alain CANET, Delphine SUZOR, Serge GADOUM, Prof. Dr. Armin BISCHOFF, Dr. Olga BARBOSA, Dr. Johanna DÖRING, Prof. Marc-André SELOSSE, and Jean François AGUT.

Conceived by Birte Jantzen and co-organized by the Maison des Vignerons de Châteauneuf-du-Pape, the symposium is designed as an open and cross-disciplinary dialogue between science and the world of wine. It is based on the sharing of knowledge, highlighting both science and practical experience, while exploring new paths and perspectives. It is intended for winemakers, appellations, unions, and interprofessions, wine professionals, institutions, bodies, and organizations working for biodiversity, as well as scientists, researchers, and students related to the subject.

Thanks to our partners for making this project for the viticulture of tomorrow possible.

Because a Châteauneuf-du-Pape is meant to be shared, join the GANG, the crew for those who have Châteauneuf-du-Pape under their skin ! Here, you will discover our privileged experiences in the vineyard, private tastings, events in preview, … We will also talk about wines as we always have, with frankness, passion, and generosity.

As the first AOC wine in France in 1936, the 3,150 hectares of the appellation extend over 5 communes: Châteauneuf-du-Pape, Bédarrides, Courthézon, Orange, and Sorgues. With 300 harvest declarants, the appellation produces an average of 90,000 hectoliters per vintage, or about 12 million bottles, distributed to 93% for red wines and 7% for white wines. Benefiting from a unique natural heritage, the AOC relies on 13 grape varieties, 5 distinct terroirs, and an exceptional climate, marked by sun and mistral, to produce exceptional wines distributed mainly for export (66% of volumes in 2021). Historically and continuously committed to sustainable development issues, 35% of the AOC’s surfaces are managed in organic or biodynamic agriculture.
