Château La Croix des Pins

Le Château la Croix des Pins in a few words....

The Château la Croix des Pins is located in Mazan, at the foot of Mont Ventoux, in the heart of the Vaucluse department, in an area classified as a Biosphere Reserve by UNESCO. It benefits from an ideal location between Mont Ventoux and the Dentelles de Montmirail to extend its vineyard. The Château produces AOC Ventoux, Beaume de Venise and Gigondas wines. Château la Croix des Pins wines are elegant and well-balanced. We love their respect for fruit and their finesse. The fine Gigondas and Ventoux cuvées can age favorably over 10 years.

The history of the estate dates back to the 16th century, when a prelate of the pontifical government, who had his headquarters in Carpentras, had the Tuscan-style bastide built in keeping with its origins. The religious character of the building is still very much in evidence with its interior chapel dating back to this period, as well as its imposing pergola comprising 40 Crillon stone pillars, leading to a spring flowing beneath a century-old oak tree, conducive to prayer and meditation.

The Château la Croix des Pins was one of the very first estates to obtain the "BIO" label in 1998.
