Situated at an altitude of 400 m, at the foot of the Sainte-Victoire mountain, this property extends over more than 200 hectares, including 55 hectares of vineyards. In a respect of the terroir and soils, the vineyard is run in Organic Agriculture. The château produces excellent rosés, but specialises in long ageing red wines based on Cabernet Sauvignon. Syrah and Grenache also contribute to the complexity of the blends. The underground cellars of Château Vignelaure contain a fascinating collection of modern art.

The estate is located in a paradisiacal place between Jouques and Rians, at four hundred meters of altitude. Nestling at the foot of the Vautubière river, the vineyard faces the Sainte-Victoire and extends over 10 hectares, on a clay-limestone soil, with a southern exposure. This estate, run by Pierre Michelland, produces wines with the most complex aromas, within the framework of organic farming. In this northern part of the Coteaux-d'Aix-en-Provence appellation, the harvest is late, and carried out by hand for each grape variety.

This 23-hectare Coteaux-d'Aix-en-Provence PDO estate, owned by Denis Alibert, was built on the ruins of the second largest known Roman wine-growing villa to date (it must have been 8,000^m2 at the time). It produces white, red and rosé wines (three vintages for each colour), more or less dry, more or less fruity, more or less mellow: taste and make your choice! The estate is one of the stages of the raid "Vélo tout terroir", a mountain bike circuit accessible to all, which winds between Rians and Jouques,

Former summer residence of the archbishopric of Aix-en-Provence, the 110-hectare estate, including 40 hectares of south-facing vines at an altitude of 400 meters and cultivated in sustainable agriculture (HVE), is located at the northern limit of the Coteaux-d'Aix-en-Provence appellation. The clay-limestone soils are planted with Syrah, Cabernet, Grenache and Cinsault grapes for the red and rosé wines, and Sauvignon, Grenache Blanc and Rolle for the white wine. Many new gold, silver and bronze medals were obtained in 2022 for the 2021 vintage.
