The mill has been in the Margier family since 1870, an eternity. Under the impetus of Nelly and Jean-François, it is modernising and moving to new premises outside the village. More modern equipment allows the pressing of nearly 600 tons of olives per year. Certified Ecocert (for organic oil) and AOP d'Aix-en-Provence, the mill receives olives from many local producers but also from private individuals who sometimes bring less than 10 kg, i.e. 3,000 contributors. The Margier family also produces wine in all three colours.

It should be noted that since the beginning of 2018, the cellar has offered itself a small makeover to welcome you even better and better present its best choices as soon as you enter.
