Mas de Cadenet

History of the Mas de Cadenet

It all started in 1813 when the Negrel family, pioneers in the wine sector, settled at the foot of the very famous Sainte-Victoire mountain, over 1000m high, which welcomes landscape-loving tourists every year. The proximity of the 60-hectare vineyard means that it is located at an altitude of more than 250m, a plot classified AOP Sainte-Victoire. A minimal remaining part is also classified as a protected designation of origin Côtes-de-Provence.

Currently the seventh generation of the Negrel family is committed to transmitting the heritage of their ancestors, while evolving in the spirit of the times through organic farming. The climatic factors that make the soil dry, resulting in a lower than average yield, and the Negrel family has chosen to favor quality over quantity.
