At the foot of the Luberon in Lourmarin, Château Fontvert is a family-run vineyard with roots dating back to 1598, shaped over centuries by the same Huguenot family.
Today, the estate covers around 20 hectares and follows organic and biodynamic practices, focusing on grape varieties like Syrah, Grenache, Mourvèdre, Vermentino, and Cinsault. The approach is careful and grounded, with a strong emphasis on respecting both the land and its biodiversity.
What sets this place apart is its simplicity. Tastings are often free and unpretentious, offering a chance to discover well-crafted wines without the formality or scale of larger estates.
For those who want to stay longer, the domaine also offers accommodation within the vineyard, including a small cabanon for couples and a larger guesthouse.
👉 Local Tip: Go earlier in the day for tastings. It’s quieter, and you’re more likely to have a more personal experience with the team.
