The Renaissance of a Great Wine Estate in the heart of Provence and the Luberon Natural Park

 

Nestled between Apt and Bonnieux, in the heart of Provence and the Luberon natural park, Château de Mille covers 116 hectares, of which 25 are dedicated to vines. Dating from the 13th century, it is the oldest wine estate in the Luberon and used to be a summer residence of the Avignon popes.

The terroir is north-facing, resting on remarkable soils at the intersection of the Luberon’s major geological axis. Our micro-climate is impacted by winds coming from the Rhône Valley as well as the high Provençal plateau. Altitude, a strong daily thermal amplitude and a significant portion of vieilles vignes give our wines their exceptional character and freshness.

The tasting room will be open but there will be no chateau visits on 14-15 June, 28-29 June and 1st July, as well as July 21st-27th. The tasting room will be CLOSED on the afternoon of 29th June.

We apologise for this inconvenience.
