The Nestuby spring, the estate's natural signature
The estate owes its name to a natural spring, the Nestuby, which rises at the heart of the property. This pure water naturally irrigates the soils and brings the vineyard a precious freshness, rare in Provence.
This presence of water deeply marks the identity of the wines: balance, finesse, natural tension. Combined with the family know-how handed down over three generations, it shapes cuvees with an elegant, sincere personality.
A family history since 1947
The adventure began in 1947, when Jean Roubaud discovered a 19th-century bastide surrounded by vines and fruit trees. As early as 1949, he bottled his first wines and developed their distribution well beyond Provence, as far as Europe.
In the 1980s, the estate reached a milestone with more than 600,000 bottles sold, a symbol of a success built on consistency and quality.
In 1984, Jean-François Roubaud took over, modernised the production tools and expanded the vineyard. Today, Romain and Damien Roubaud, the third generation, continue the story with fresh energy, blending tradition, innovation and openness to the public.
A high-altitude terroir at the heart of the Provençal Haut Pays
Set in the Haut Pays of the Côtes de Provence appellation, Château Nestuby enjoys a remarkable microclimate:
Sunny days. Provençal warmth for ripening the grapes.
Cool nights. The freshness that preserves aromas and acidity.
A strong temperature range. A day-night gap favourable to aromatic finesse.
The clay-limestone soils, combined with the altitude and the nearby Verdon, give the Provençal grapes a slow, balanced ripening. The result: elegant, precise and expressive wines, far from excessive heat.
A reasoned viticulture, certified HVE level 3
Committed for several years to reasoned farming, the estate is certified HVE level 3 (High Environmental Value). This certification reflects careful work on:
Soil preservation. Living soils, the basis of balanced wines.
Biodiversity. A vineyard respectful of its environment.
Reasoned water management. A precious resource, managed with care.
Respect for the vine's natural cycle. Observe, understand, intervene with precision.
The estate's philosophy is simple and demanding: this care given to the vine is the basis of balanced, authentic wines faithful to their terroir.
