Le petit train des vignes de Provence Méditerranée | Route through the village of La Crau

Discover the richness and authenticity of Provence Méditerranée, where the sea meets the majestic Maures forest. Here, viticulture shapes the landscape, reflects an exceptional art of living and embodies the excellence of the Mediterranean diet.

Aboard the Petit Train des Vignes, our passionate guide will reveal the secrets of Provence, its history and its winegrowing heritage.

First stop: 100% organic Solignac estate, wine and olive oil

Domaine de Solignac in Hyères produces not only elegant organic wines, but also top-quality olive oil.

With a deep respect for the terroir, this small, family-run operation uses traditional methods to cultivate olive trees and produce PDO “Huile d’olive de Provence bio” olive oil.

Tradition and know-how are combined to offer authentic products with subtle notes.

Second stop: “Don Bosco’s dream” estate

The history of the estate began in 1878, when Don Bosco, a man of faith and compassion, settled on these lands. Dedicated to young orphans and the unemployed, he created the first oratory to provide these young people with training opportunities and a promising future.

Today, the estate bears the imprint of this humanist philosophy, centered on people, respect for the terroir and the sharing of knowledge. The passionate and welcoming team at the domaine will tell you all about this history through a tasting of the wines produced here.

On Thursday, October 16, for the Vignobles en scènes event taking place from October 16 to 19, take a ride on our little vineyard train in La Crau.
And, all weekend long, take part in events featuring local produce and gastronomy in a festive atmosphere.
