Pascal is the fourth generation of viticulteurs at Tulette (Soutern Rhône area); his father Roger was at the cave de Tulette; Pascal left the Cave les Coteaux of Visan in 2002. The domaine has been organic since 2008 and biodynamic since 2020; he also sells crop to the Famille Perrin.

Pascal is a most thoughtful, measured vigneron, on a steady path of developing the connection between his terroir and the wines. He also explores the possibilities of Muscardin and Vaccarèse for the reds, with Counoise cuttings from Château de Beaucastel at Châteauneuf-du-Pape.

The plots that Pascal Chalon has reserved for white grape varieties are located on the Tulette terroir, in a place where the soil is predominantly sandy. Some of the vines are located on a hillside, where they benefit from a recent soil of more or less gravelly and sandy clay, while the other part is located on a plateau with predominantly sandy soil.
