WINE ESTATE IN PROVENCE
Food & Wine
Deeply committed to quality, Château de Berne is planted with 277 acres of vines producing Côtes de
Provence AOP (Protected Designation of Origin) wines.
The estate's Grand Cru wines, the fruit of time-honored wine growing expertise, are acclaimed by the finest
restaurants.
The Château produces signature square bottles of its elegant and highly-reputed red, white and rosé wines
every year. Our Sommeliers love sharing their passion with guests through a variety of cellar tours, guided
wine tasting sessions and oenology workshops.
An ode to Provence's legendary lifestyle, Château de Berne also offers guests a genuine
culinary voyage of the senses. Our Chef, one star Michelin, Benjamin Collombat, will surprise you
throughout the seasons with his unique and playful gastronomic experiences.
In the refined setting of "Le Jardin de Benjamin", guests savor creative and authentic cuisine
celebrating the terroir of Provence and home-grown produce straight from our Kitchen Garden!
You can also opt for "La Table du Chef", for an exclusive and intimate behind-the-scenes dinner
in the wings of the gastronomic restaurant.
The "Bistrot", set next to the Wine Shop (La Cave), serves casual, local cuisine reminiscent of
French classics.
