Our wine villages

The winemaking tradition is at the heart of village life in Vaison Ventoux Provence, where history and terroir combine to offer an authentic experience. Some of our villages bear the heritage of a long winemaking tradition, lending a unique and enchanting atmosphere to the cobbled streets and shady squares.

1. Cairanne

Perched on a promontory amidst the vineyards, Cairanne offers panoramic views from its old village. Narrow streets, calades and ramparts bear witness to its thousand-year-old history.

Cairanne’s three towers, a legacy of the Templar Commandery, and the parish church of Saint-André blend Romanesque and Gothic styles. The chapels of Notre-Dame des Excès and Saint-Geniès invite contemplation. The chapel of Notre-Dame-de-la-Vigne-et-du-Rosaire, near the Belvédère, dazzles with its remarkable stained-glass windows.

Cairanne blends history and wine tourism, and charms with its picture-postcard landscapes. Hiking trails, notably the GR4, offer the opportunity to marvel at the panoramic views over the vineyards and the Dentelles de Montmirail.
