Located on the east of the village of Vinsobres, protected from the Mistral winds, the vineyards of Domaine Saint Vincent inhabit the land of the former convent of Saint Césaire de Nyons, where a chapel was erected in memory of Saint Vincent, the patron saint of winegrowers. It was in this privileged place that in the 1920’s, the Domaine Saint Vincent was created. Today Philippe Lescoche and his daughter Ludivine, grow and develop the estate with great passion for the wines and the historical significance of this ancient land.
