Private Wine Tour in Provence with an Expert

Friends, sunshine and wine! The perfect recipe as you discover the vineyards of Provence. Here we’ll visit together some of the most beautiful vineyards in France, in this magical sunlit landscape where hillsides and vineyards alternate with pine forests and olive groves. In the heart of this authentic Provençale setting, there are vineyards to experience full of charm and beautiful architecture. This is home of rosé wines of style and delicacy, reds that are powerful yet of great finesse, and white wines with their delicate floral and fruit aromas. You’ll get to visit three award winning vineyards, each one with its own personality, where you’ll enjoy a Masterclass on the wines of Provence presented by your sommelier-guide : learning all about the grape varieties, different styles of wine in Provence, viticulture, vinification, ageing, and everything else that goes into making these superb wines. Above all, you’ll taste around a dozen wines in the three colours during the day.

In an exceptional setting, between the Sainte Victoire mountain and the Luberon, the Château Paradis vineyards stretch over 80 hectares in the heart of Provence, at the extreme north of the Coteaux d’Aix-en-Provence, in the commune of Puy-Sainte-Réparade. The estate boasts an exceptional range of terroirs that the various owners have been able to bring out over the years. Since 2011, Xavier and Odile Thieblin, who are attached to their Provençal roots, have been determined to add value to the estate and to strive for excellence.

It all began in 1973 when Paul Dubrule, an experienced entrepreneur and co-founder of the Accor group, fell under the spell of a Provencal bastide, La Cavale, and the beauty of the Luberon. From a plot of vines to a few hectares, the adventure accelerated. In 1986, he embarked on a wine-growing adventure with the creation of his estate in Cucuron, which he naturally called La Cavale. Between 2005 and 2009, as part of his mandate as a senator, Paul Dubrule was entrusted with the mission of defining a policy aimed to boost both tourism and the wine industry. This was to be the birth of wine tourism. He also applied his own recommendations and decided to make La Cavale the unmissable place of wine and life of the Luberon.

An air of timelessness permeates the shade cast by the Sannes plane trees. The air’s blue gaze tempts you along the honey-coloured drive leading to the chateau. The old mill drinks the gentle wind above the green strokes of vineyards painted on the Luberon landscape. The sunshine beats down on summer’s red cherries embraced by lavender’s mauve fragrance.
