The history of Chateau de Montfaucon dates back to the 11th century when the castle's first tower was built strategically in a bend of the river Rhone accross the terroir of Chateau-Neuf-Du-Pappe,  and wine production started here from the XVth century. Ch. de Montfaucon is considered one of the members of the first eleven towns forming La Cote du Rhone association of the right bank of the Rhone, which was founded to protect the quality of their wine.

In 1995, Rodolphe de Pins took over the family estate, rebuilded the winery and made his first vintage of Chateau de Montfaucon. Since 1995 the estate has expanded to the extent of over 60 hectares of vines. The latest acquisition was seven hectares of Cru Lirac, that included a plot of old Clairette vines aged 140 years.
