In 2006, Jean-Jacques Frey bought Paul Jaboulet Aîné. Under them, the Maison thrived once more. Jacques and Nicolas Frey are involved in the day-to-day running of the Maison Jaboulet, while Caroline Frey has been at the helm of the winemaking team since 2006. She immediately set to work converting the estate to sustainable farming. They were certified organic in 2016, and also farm biodynamically. In 2021, a new label for the Hermitage wines was created to honour the distinct and reputable wines they produce on the hill: Domaine de la Chapelle.
