The owners of the Château and their team

Yvon and Claudine BOISDRON, happy owners of Château Lafoux since 2001, have been committed for more than 20 years to transmitting their passion and creating exceptional wines. At the heart of the Lafoux estate, so called in homage to the source that feeds the town of Tourves and the Château de Valvelle, they have surrounded themselves with Lionel BOISSEZON, cellar master, who oversees the aging of the wine from harvest to bottling, by Karine BOISSEZON, daughter of winegrowers and head of the cellar.

To this team are also added Pierre GUERRIN, consultant-oenologist, who brings a new eye to each vintage, Stéphane VINCENS, the second in cultivation, for whom the vineyard no longer holds any secrets, Yoann THIBAULT, agricultural worker as well as Alberto, speaker. Pauline MONGEON completes the team, with her status as sommelier at Château Lafoux.

Travellers' review - Château Lafoux

  • anniversary of 20 years of successful marriage

    We took advantage of this stay to celebrate our 20th wedding anniversary. The location is very pretty, calm and romantic. The Angélique room is perhaps not up to 5-star standards. The reception and staff are warm but classy, and the services are up to scratch. The meal was fabulous, we asked not to see the menu so that we could be surprised with each course, and we also let them choose the wines served by the glass for each course. It was fabulous, the service, the quality of the products and the talent of the chef all combined to give us an excellent time. Wines are included in the package, but 7 euros for coffee and 8 euros for bottled water...you only find out when you leave! Breakfast is very good, all homemade, with a supplement of 4 euros if you want savoury. The visit to Chateau Lafoux went well, with a young man showing us the wines and explaining the blending of grape varieties... We went for a walk along the estate's paths, which was great fun. A bottle was offered, but we couldn't resist buying some... We also had an appointment the next day at 11 a.m. at the Maison des Vins, next door to the abbey. The wine tasting after breakfast was average, but the lady who welcomed us was really nice, and we had a great time. The abbey is free to visit. a magical interlude

  • The wines of the estate

    Château Lafoux is ideally located in the heart of 'Green Provence'. Spread over 166 hectares, including 30 of vines, the diversity of grape varieties planted offers a range of choices when blending the wines: Grenaches, Cinsault, Syrah, Cabernet Sauvignon, Rolle and Uni Blanc.

    Their first cuvée, called VINICIUS, is a meticulous blend of Cinsault-Grenache and Rolle which defines the identity of their rosé. To this cuvée are also added a clear, almost translucent white born from a selection of Rolle and Clairette as well as an expressive and complex red reaching 14.5 degrees.

    The second cuvée, entitled 'Auguste', brings together the aromatic elegance of rosé, the delicacy of the local terroir through the white and the expression of the noble grape varieties in the red wine.

    The ultimate cuvée, the Château cuvée is made up of a fruity Cinsault-Grenache rosé, a fresh and floral Rolle and Clairette white as well as a red from Syrah, Cabernet and Grenache grapes. These 3 wines alone represent Provençal viniculture.
