Calmel & Joseph成立於1995年，是一間勃艮第式的釀造型酒商，以釀造及銷售法國南部的Languedoc-Roussillon法定產區葡萄酒產品為主。合作夥伴是分佈在Languedoc-Roussillon產區的各家族式酒莊。酒莊創始人之一的Laurent Calmel憑藉多年擔任釀酒顧問的經驗，逐步與產區內多個具有代表性的酒農及酒莊建立了長期的互信關係。
兩位公司創始人，Laurent Calmel與Jerome Joseph對Languedoc-Roussillon產區發展潛力深信不疑。兩人共同的理念推動他們前行，一同釀製，混合與陳釀酒莊的全部葡萄酒款。這也是要向世界證明，在地中海特有的風土人文條件下，可以栽種並釀造出非常優質的葡萄酒；同時他們也渴望讓更多的人瞭解並認同Languedoc-Roussillon產區葡萄酒不為人知的品質與地位。除了堅持在這片風土上釀製出高品質的葡萄酒外，還期望憑藉對法國南部產區風土人文的理解，並通過多年的釀造經驗，陳釀出高品質的傳統風味葡萄酒。
