Photo Château de Taurenne

The Domaine de Taurenne, whose history goes back to the Templars, is located in the Haut Var at an altitude of 438 to 580 m.


It lies on the southern slopes of a relief materialized by the Grand Plan de Canjuers (900-1000 m) and the crests of the Grand Margès (1577 m), two massifs that constitute the southern limit of the Grand Canyon du Verdon. A large part of the property is located in the Verdon Regional Natural Park.
The castle of Taurenne was invested by the Templars for agricultural purposes. From a past marked by agriculture, the estate has preserved the olive tree which has resisted frost and fire.
In order to redevelop this agriculture, more than 11,000 olive trees have been planted from robust varieties in order to resist the harsh climate of the Haut Var.
One of the estate's oils is stamped AOP Provence.
The owner, committed to the concept of "Découverte des Terroirs", is passionate about his activity. He will be able to transmit his know-how and love of the land to you.
A warm and authentic welcome is guaranteed.

On site, a guided tour of the olive grove, the ultra-modern mill, the vat room and oil tasting are possible.
At the store or online on our website, our olive oils are waiting for you:
- A.O.P. PROVENCE Extra Virgin Olive Oil
- Old-fashioned taste, Aglandau, Bouteillan, Small Game, Frantoïo and Oil&Lemon.

The mill is open to private individuals from Monday to Saturday from 9am to 5pm at the end of October - beginning of November from 250Kg minimum and we make your exclusive press. Do not hesitate to contact us for more information.
