Nestled between Mount Sainte-Victoire and Sainte-Baume, Château Grand Boise enjoys a special continental climate. Since 1610, it's evolved in the Simonet family from varied farming to exclusive winemaking. The estate, now run by Jean Simonet, stretches from 320 to 650 meters high, and constantly evolving: certified organic, biodynamic and now NOP, the new generations are making the most of their unique terroir (pink marbles, sandy limestones).
