Benefiting from a privileged location between land and sea, it contributes to the renown of the region's wines.

For wineries like Favanquet, the upcoming period is strategic. It coincides with the influx of French and international tourists on the Var coast, a clientele curious to immerse themselves in Provençal culture and taste local products. The launch of the summer season involves an intensification of welcoming activities, tastings, and tours, allowing a bond to be created between the producer and the consumer. It is an essential economic lever that values both the products and the region. The Domaine's announcement is interpreted as an open invitation to all wine lovers, local residents, and vacationers. It signals that the estate is ready to share its passion and its cuvées throughout the summer. The summer season is traditionally an opportunity for visitors to discover the cellars, walk in the vineyards, and understand the subtleties of the rosé, white, and red wines that are the pride of Provence. The estate thus positions itself as a must-visit destination for those wishing to live an authentic experience in the heart of the Var vineyard.
