The place is intimately linked to the history of the village: after the massacre of the Vaudois in the 16th century, the mill, built in the heart of Mérindol in the 17th century will symbolize the revival of the village. Two centuries later, it became part of the Boudoire family. For five generations, Francine and her husband René have always perpetuated the tradition. Three oils are produced at the mill: the AOC Provence, fruity green, a ripe fruity oil, composed of aglandau and salonenque, and a fruity black oil with an old-fashioned taste, where the olives are deliberately left to ferment.

Overlooked by the Mourre-Nègre mountain and set just outside the village of Mirabeau, Château de Clapier has been a family estate since 1880, covering 35 hectares. Independent winemaker Thomas Montagne creates 12 highly individual AOP Luberon wines, such as Cuvée Soprano, a unique blend of Syrah, Grenache noir and... Pinot noir (Gold Medal at the Concours des Grands Vins de Mâcon). Other fine bottles to discover include the Cuvée Tessiture, a micro-cuvée with an intense nose of macerated black fruit that sums up the winemaker's work. Follow in the footsteps of the winemaker by taking part in the Géo Caching outdoor treasure hunt after downloading the app. The 1h30 walk is followed by a wine tasting. Picnics and concerts are organized at the estate during the summer.

In the 12th century, in the district of the Hermitants, foodstuffs (flour, wine, honey and olive oil) were made for the workers who built the Abbey of Sénanque. But in 1210, the monks left for Sénanque and sold the property to the Count of Châteauneuf. Who will in turn sell it to the family of the Marquis de Sade, who will be succeeded by several generations of Provencal families. Although agricultural activities continued over the centuries, it was not until 2001, with the arrival of the Nibbio family, that olive oil was once again produced.

The estate covers 28 ha at the foot of the Luberon mountain. It is a very special terroir, limestone, sand and stones, on which vines were already cultivated in Gallo-Roman times. Domaine La Garelle produces red, white and rosé Côtes du Luberon AOP and Vins de Pays de Vaucluse. The cellars are air-conditioned and the pneumatic press takes care of the grapes. The average age of the vines is 25 years in AOC, and 15 years in Vins de Pays. Alain Audet, an agricultural engineer, has all the cards in hand to make the best wines!

The Domaine de la Royère has been in the Hugues family for several generations. But it was in 1988 that Anne and Jean-Pierre Hugues decided to recreate a wine heritage. The first vintage was vinified the same year. The 32 hectares of vines, the oldest of which are a hundred years old, are spread over three terroirs around Oppède and Oppède-le-Vieux, cultivated using sustainable agriculture, limited yields and manual harvesting. The L'oppidum cuvée, a Côtes du Luberon A.O.C. rosé, is vinified by direct pressing.

From sourdough breads and viennoiseries to pastries and cookies, this is an artisan bakery worthy of the name.
