The wines of Château Lafoux

Located in the heart of Provence Verte, Château Lafoux covers 166 hectares, including 30 hectares of vines. The diversity of grape varieties grown on the estate — Grenache, Cinsault, Syrah, Cabernet Sauvignon, Rolle, Clairette and Ugni Blanc — allows Château Lafoux to produce a beautiful range of red, white and rosé wines.

The Vinicius cuvée expresses the estate’s Provençal identity through accessible and expressive wines: a rosé made mainly from Cinsault and Grenache, a fresh and delicate white, and a more structured red. The Auguste cuvée places greater emphasis on elegance and aromatic depth. Available in rosé, white and red, these wines are crafted to reveal the finesse of the terroir and the character of Provençal grape varieties. Some cuvées have also received awards in regional competitions. Finally, the Château cuvée reflects a more accomplished expression of the estate’s savoir-faire, with a fruity rosé, a fresh and floral white, and a red wine combining Syrah, Cabernet Sauvignon and Grenache.

Committed to organic farming since 2012, Château Lafoux also follows an approach inspired by biodynamics. Ageing in oak barrels and sandstone jars helps refine the wines while preserving fruit expression, balance and the unique character of each terroir.

Travellers' review - Château Lafoux

  • anniversary of 20 years of successful marriage

    We took advantage of this stay to celebrate our 20th wedding anniversary. The location is very pretty, calm and romantic. The Angélique room is perhaps not up to 5-star standards. The reception and staff are warm but classy, and the services are up to scratch. The meal was fabulous, we asked not to see the menu so that we could be surprised with each course, and we also let them choose the wines served by the glass for each course. It was fabulous, the service, the quality of the products and the talent of the chef all combined to give us an excellent time. Wines are included in the package, but 7 euros for coffee and 8 euros for bottled water...you only find out when you leave! Breakfast is very good, all homemade, with a supplement of 4 euros if you want savoury. The visit to Chateau Lafoux went well, with a young man showing us the wines and explaining the blending of grape varieties... We went for a walk along the estate's paths, which was great fun. A bottle was offered, but we couldn't resist buying some... We also had an appointment the next day at 11 a.m. at the Maison des Vins, next door to the abbey. The wine tasting after breakfast was average, but the lady who welcomed us was really nice, and we had a great time. The abbey is free to visit. a magical interlude

    Yvon and Claudine Boisdron have been the proud owners of Château Lafoux since 2001. For more than 20 years, they have been dedicated to sharing their passion and creating exceptional wines.
    At the heart of Domaine Lafoux — named after the spring that supplies the town of Tourves and Château de Valvelle — they are supported by Lionel Boissezon, cellar master, who oversees the ageing of the wines from harvest through to bottling, and Karine Boissezon, daughter of winegrowers and manager of the tasting room. The team also works alongside Pierre Guerrin, consulting oenologist, who brings an outside perspective to each vintage. In the vineyard, Stéphane Vincens, assistant vineyard manager, shares his in-depth knowledge of the land, working with Yoann Thibault, vineyard worker, and Alberto, who also contributes to the estate’s work. Pauline Mongeon, sommelier at Château Lafoux, completes the team.
