Surrounded by almond trees, truffle oaks, and olive trees, the vineyards here, nestled in the crater of Provence’s only volcano, have been flourishing for more than two thousand years. Luxury and serenity are the key words to describe this magical place rich with history. It was owned by the Counts of Provence in the 16th century and the greatest Provençal families owned it in turn, carefully preserving this remarkable region. It is a tradition which continues in the family today. The owners have spent a long time renovating it and invite guests to discover the art of living in a great Provencal wine-growing and agricultural estate, one of the most extensive of the Coteaux d’Aix-en-Provence.  A large part of the vineyard is located on volcanic soil distinguished by the presence of basalt, which shapes the development of the authentic character of the wines.
