It is the most expansize estate in the Coteaux dAix-en-Provence appellation with 180 hectares of centuries old vines interspersed with stately oak, almond, and truffle trees. The vineyards are planted along the slopes of the dormant La Trvaresse volcano. The expansive estate benefits from a moderate Mediterranean climate and plays host to a diverse range of mineral-rich soils (calcareous clay and volcanic basalt) which contribute to the wines complexity.Dating back to the 16th Century, Chteau Beaulieu was historically home to the great noble families of Provence. It was purchased in 2000 by Pierre Gunant who made significant investments to restore the Chteau to its original glory, upgrade the vineyards, and innovate the viticultural and winemaking philosophy to create superior quality Provencal blends from 100% estate-grown fruit.
