We are located between the vast vineyards of the Cotes du Rhone and the Cotes du Ventoux. Well-known wine villages in the area include Chateauneuf du Pape, Gigondas, Roaix, Seguret, Vacqueyras, Beaumes-de-Venise and Vinsobres. Commonly used red grape varieties include Syrah, Grenache, Mourvedre, Cinsault and Carignan. Planted white grape varieties include Viognier, Grenache, Marsanne and Picpoul.
We prefer organic wine for our health. Around our previous farm we have experienced how it is like to live with so much use of poison around you. It is a known secret that a lot of wine contains agricultural pesticides. Fortunately, many (young) wine farmers are now moving on to organic. In Entrechaux we support the 2 organic wine farmers Domaine Tales and Uncle Ernest.
