The Venue History
17th-18th century · Provençal Aix-style bastide
Built between the end of the 17th century and the beginning of the 18th century, the bastide was the stronghold of the Savornin family. In 2015, Domaine de Fontenille was renovated and became a luxury hotel designed as a family home. The vineyard dates to 1638, making it one of the oldest wine domains in Provence.
