Wines and spirits Suze-La-Rousse

Nestled at the foot of the castle, this winery was created in 1926. La Suzienne is a showcase of the region's winegrowing landscape, an ambassador for the diversity of the terroirs and local wines. It brings together the winegrowers of 22 communes located in the Drôme Provençale and the northern part of the Vaucluse. La Suzienne produces and markets 4 AOP appellations: côtes-du-rhône, côtes-du-rhône-villages, grignan-les-adhémar and suze-la-rousse. Many events with animations and concerts around tastings, oysters and wines lunch for example. See program on the website.

Sport and viticulture go hand in hand! Leplan-Vermeersch is a family wine estate of 24 ha, created by Dirk Vermeersch, a former car driver. In 1986, he obtained his first "victories" with a 2003 (two stars in the Hachette wine guide) then with a 2006 Châteauneuf-du-Pape (95 out of 100 in the Parker guide). The estate produces a diverse range of organic wines from local (single) grape varieties such as Aramon, Carignan, Grenache, Syrah and Viognier. He is assisted by Ann, his daughter, an oenologist, and Sébastien, his son-in-law, a former rugby player.

Domaine des Gravennes is a vineyard offering tastings and sales at the cellar.
