A Rich Winemaking Tradition in Provence

History and Heritage of Mas de Valériole

Mas de Valériole, meaning "farm" in the local dialect, is a historic estate nestled in the heart of Camargue. This remarkable site has witnessed centuries of life, beginning with its first owner, Monsieur François de Valériole, a doctor in Arles, in 1426. The Michel family has proudly owned the estate since the 1950s, continuing its legacy through generations.

Today, three generations of the Michel family work together at Mas de Valériole. Patrick and Jean-Paul, sons of René and Nicole, manage the estate's diverse agricultural activities. Patrick oversees the vineyards, while Jean-Paul focuses on larger crops such as rice, wheat, and sunflowers. Their commitment to organic farming practices ensures a sustainable approach to agriculture.

Commitment to Organic Farming

Organic farming is a core value for the Michel family. Since taking over the vineyards, Patrick has prioritized sustainable practices, earning the organic certification in 2006. Alongside his son Maxime, who joined him in 2015, they produce wines with minimal intervention, including natural wines and those without added sulfites, reflecting their dedication to environmental stewardship and health.

The Mas de Valériole wine range features a variety of grape varieties. Their white wines, including one orange wine, are crafted from Chardonnay and Vermentino, while the rosés and reds showcase Merlot, Cabernet-Sauvignon, Caladoc, Petit-Verdot, and Marselan.

Unique Terroir of Camargue

The Camargue region boasts unique soils formed from the sediment left by the Rhône River. These soils are ideal for producing both light, easy-drinking wines and fuller-bodied, age-worthy varieties. The Mistral wind, which blows cold and dry from the northwest, helps maintain vine health by reducing humidity and disease. Rainfall, when it occurs, is typically brought by the sea breeze from the southeast.

Patrick and Maxime focus on crafting fresh, approachable wines, even those meant for aging. They harvest early in the morning to preserve the grapes' natural freshness. Vinification and aging occur in concrete vats and 400L barrels, tailored to each vintage's needs.

I had an absolutely delightful time at this vineyard! The tasting experience was truly remarkable (we had a group of 4 without a reservation), thanks to the wonderful tasting room employee who shared her passion and made sure we had an amazing time. She took her time to introduce us not only to the wine, but also to other interesting wine topics related to the region and country. Every wine we tried was exceptional – not a single one disappointed us. We purchased 2 full cases of a variety of available wines. The warm welcome from the owner and the rest of the staff made us feel like part of the family. A must-visit for wine enthusiasts looking for a memorable and welcoming experience!

Came here for a wine tasting with a large group, our guide was very knowledgeable about the land and the wines we tasted. Homey feel to the vineyard and grounds, super interesting facts about irrigation system they use, etc. Wines are affordable for such high quality, still dreaming of the orange wine and Empreinte

The best winery tasting I have been to amidst all my travels. The staff was so friendly and the wines were all delicious. I would expect higher prices for such amazing wines. I wish I could have shipped a case back to the US. They also provided small bites to go along with our wine tasting which were wonderful. If you have a chance to visit this winery, don't miss it!
