Domaine de la Giscle

This vineyard situated on the southern slope of Massif des Maures, few kilometers away from the Chartreuse of Verne and next to the seaside has been owned by the Audemard family for 5 generations.


The vinyeard produces PDO wines Côtes de Provence. Traditions and authenticity, enjoy the fruit of our passion, between paintings and sculptures from local artists. Visit our air conditioned cellars.


Rest under the shade of old mulberry trees.

 

Come to discover our new space of the "museum of the vine and the wine" with authentic tools, some of which go back to very old times and in particular the old wine press used by the great grandfather of the family. Also a room of 30 m2 surrounded by large oak barrels of more than 3000 liters each! Free visit and fun corner with a video screen explaining the work of the vineyard.

Situated on the southern slope of Massif des Maures, in Cogolin (town that has found its agricultural vocation in the 19th century but whose human traces go back to the Palaeolithic, from -30 000 to -10 000 BC), the vineyard is a few kilometers away from the seaside.


The Audemard family has been managing this vineyard for 5 generations. PDO wines Côtes de Provence, house wines, table wines… With an area of nearly 40 ha, you walk through the vineyard to get to the cellar and go through the production buildings where you will find an old flour mill.


Discover the cellar in the middle of more than a hundred barrels. Violette will be honored to show you the bottling area and you’ll admire the artwork of a local artist living in Grimaud. A slide show will show you the different technics used to make the wine.
