William’s son, Henri Darnajou, began to develop the winegrowing activity, as a concrete business. The wine was mainly sold in bulk to wholesalers, but very quickly, Henri Darnajou developed sales in bottle, winning the loyalty of the customers, all over France.

Jean joined forces with his brother-in-law, Patrick Merle, to create the SCEA du Château des Moines, enabling the estate an important business development.
