History

A family story started in 1830

Our ancestor Hippolyte Arnal created Domaine de La Périnade around 1830.

In 2019, the 6th and 7th generations took up vinification together. The private winery opened the following year.

Since 2019, the estate has returned to on-site vinification, opened its own winery, and joined the Collège Culinaire de France in 2022 — milestones that define a lasting revival.
