In Callian, Mas Ricardenque brings together two emblematic crops of the Pays de Fayence on one estate: grapevines and the Centifolia rose grown for perfumery. This family estate uses organic farming methods and grows around 8,000 Centifolia rose bushes alongside a vineyard whose grapes are made into wine on site.
Why visit?
A visit reveals how two kinds of terroir coexist: wine and perfume plants. Across the seasons, the estate tells the story of growing and harvesting roses, and working the vines through to winemaking.
Can you explore the estate itself?
Mas Ricardenque occasionally opens its growing areas to visitors. In 2026, it notably participates in the Pays de Fayence's Visites de la Passion / Chemins parfumés, with a small-group encounter among the roses and vines to discover the work of Pascal and Lauriane.
The little extra
Here, the connection between farming and perfume is particularly tangible: the Centifolia rose is not decorative but a genuine agricultural crop, growing alongside the vines. It is an interesting place to combine winemaking, perfume plants and family expertise in a single outing.
What to know before visiting
Visits and immersive experiences depend on growing seasons and scheduled events. For 2026, it is best to check dates and book before travelling.
