Château la Genestière - Tavel

Originally a silkworm farm in the 16th century,  Château la Genestière became a winemaking estate in 1930. The 40-hectare doamine was acquired by Jean-Claude Garcin in 1944. Through years of perseverance and painstaking work, M. Garcin, along with his son Raphaël, improved the property and purchased nearby vineyards in the region. Christian Latouche, owner of two domaines in Les Baux-de-Provence, purchased the doamine in 2015, and added several vineyeard sites covering the prestigious appellation of Châteauneuf-du-Pape. With a dynamic new team in place, M. Latouche made significant investments in the domaine to maintain the high-quality tradition and exceptional heritage of the estate started by the Garcins. Here, Grenache and Syrah reign, creating wines that are ideal companions for simple, rustic cuisine.
