CHATEAU DE BERNE
Château de Berne’s terroir is located nearly 25 miles from the Mediterranean Sea. It is situated on a plateau made of a chalky bed that formed in the lower and middle Jurassic ages, when the sea still occupied the region, leaving marine sediment deposits. The soils are predominately limestone and clay, which o er an ideal balance of drainage. The region receives 3,000 hours of sunshine, 20-30 inches of rainfall and 50 windy days annually, which allows the grapes to achieve full phenolic ripeness and provides ventilation which ensures a wonderful aromatic freshness.
The estate, one of the best renowned wine tourism destinations in Provence welcomes wine lovers to an exceptional, luxurious setting: an elegant five-star Relais & Château hotel, a spa, two restaurants including the Michelin-starred Le Jardin de Benjamin, a cooking school and 1,235 acres of magnificent natural scenery dedicated to discovering Provence.
