Château des Garcinières has been an independent family vineyard since 1898.
The estate's 17 hectares of vines have earned their nobility thanks to years of efforts towards organic farming.
The family motto is "Nature is our guide".
The land of this former Cistercian monastery has been dedicated to vines for three centuries, much to the delight of the Valentin family, who have run the estate since 1898.
The avenue of three-hundred-year-old plane trees lining the road leading to the main residence speaks volumes about the history of this place. At the end of this majestic driveway stands the Provencal bastide, a testament to centuries gone by. The Valentin family has run the estate for five generations. The family's two sisters, Stéphanie and Karine, are proud representatives of Château des Garcinières, a true Provencal jewel. Steeped in winegrowing from an early age with their father Louis Valentin, it was difficult for them to imagine any other life. It's not just a profession, it's a way of life. Modern winemaking techniques - night harvesting, new vats and new winemaking equipment - enable the production of extremely fine rosés, reds and whites. The techniques are there, but above all the team wants to work with the greatest respect for nature. Here, the focus is on round, rich, balanced wines, in keeping with the determination of Stéphanie and Karine, accompanied by Richard, the cellar master.
Château des Garcinières is open all year round, offering a wide range of activities including wine sales and tastings, special events and function room hire.
