Autour du Ventoux is a destination that is famous for its wide range of outdoor activities. It is also home to an exceptional vineyard.

AOC Ventoux wines – whether they’re red, white or rosé – draw all their flair and delicious vivacity from the cool nights and pure air of Mont Ventoux.

The grape varieties benefit from an outstanding terroir and preserved biodiversity that helps them express themselves. Located between the Mediterranean and the Alps, Mont Ventoux is listed as a classified biosphere reserve by UNESCO. At its foot, the vineyards thrive in the heart of the garrigue, shaping the beauty of the landscape.
