Domaine La Cavale: a great Provençal wine born from a love at first sight with the Luberon
Today, Domaine La Cavale covers 41 hectares of vineyards planted exclusively on hillsides, in the heart of the Luberon Regional Natural Park, between Lourmarin, Cucuron, Vaugines and Cadenet. Here, the vines breathe, gain altitude and draw their energy from living soils, swept by the winds and bathed in light.
An altitude terroir, a signature of freshness and elegance
The vineyards of La Cavale, farmed with high standards, are planted on slopes that naturally provide:
slow and balanced ripening
preserved natural freshness
precise aromatic expression, without heaviness
The estate’s eight grape varieties give rise to white, rosé and red wines marked by:
tension and fruit in the whites and rosés
structure, depth and ageing potential in the reds
Each wine tells the story of the Luberon’s relief, its minerality and its vibrant energy.
Three ranges, three interpretations of the estate
La Cavale has chosen a clear and readable range, designed to accompany every moment of enjoyment.
Petite Cavale :Accessible, generous and precise wines, perfect for everyday dining. Clean fruit, a fluid palate and immediate balance.
La Cavale : The heart cuvée of the estate. Pleasure-driven wines, more structured and more complex, faithfully expressing the identity of the Luberon terroirs.
BLANC :A confidential micro-cuvée from a single parcel in Cadenet. Here, Vermentino reveals its full nobility: a pure, contemporary, taut and elegant white wine with genuine ageing potential. A wine without artifice, straight and almost mineral in expression.
A pioneer of wine tourism in Provence
Today, the estate welcomes an exceptional wine tourism center designed by architect Jean-Michel Wilmotte. This contemporary building, perfectly integrated into the Luberon landscape, houses:
vinification and ageing cellars
a 500 m² boutique
a curated selection of wines from around the world, spirits, gourmet products, glassware, books and wine accessories
Educational workshops, immersive visits and open-air summer concerts on the terrace make La Cavale a must-visit destination in the Luberon.
A sustainable vision, focused on the future
The transformation of the estate relied on high-level expertise:
Alain Graillot, for vineyard restructuring
Lydia and Claude Bourguignon, for in-depth soil analysis and biological life studies
This approach led to organic certification, with a clear ambition: preserve the land, pass on a living vineyard and produce sincere wines true to their origin.
Since 2018, Thierry Mueth, son-in-law of Paul Dubrule, has continued this family vision with rigor and modernity.
La Cavale: a wine, a place, an experience
At La Cavale, nothing is decorative. Everything is coherent: the wine, the architecture, the hospitality and the landscape.
It is an estate that speaks to the palate as much as to the mind. A place where wine is understood as culture, long-term commitment and shared emotion.
