Château de Calavon

Sébastien has had his feet in the vines and his hands in the barrels since he was 14 years old. First a winemaker in Charentes, then in the Southwest, he arrived at Château de Calavon in 2016. The estate belongs to the Audibert family who entrusted him with their vines with their eyes closed. This was for Sebastien the beginning of a third life as a winemaker. At the Château, he produces organic and sunny wines, as well as olive oil.

Our story

In the heart of the Coteaux d'Aix-en-Provence appellation, the same family has been perpetuating a tradition that began in the 19th century for nearly 100 years. The appellation, which was created in 1985, benefits from a magnificent exposure between Marseille and Arles. And in Calavon, the terroir, favorable to red wines, is marked by the fineness of the sands, the strength of the clays, and the subtle dose of limestone...

The Château de Calavon has belonged to the same family for five generations. It has been operated since the time of the Princes of Orange and was broken up during the Revolution. From 1998 to 2017, the 5th generation undertook major work on the vineyard and the cellar, with the objective of making Château de Calavon an essential reference in the appellation. Today, the search for excellence is perpetuated.
