COQUILLADE VILLAGE
History & Story
The oldest walls date from the 11th century and, according to legend, the ham¬let was founded by the Cistercian monks of the Abbey of Sénanque. Two centuries later, the vines began to be developed.
A soft spot for the Luberon prompted Andreas Rihs to invest in Provence. Known for his passion for wine
and cycling, in 2006 the Swiss entrepreneur bought the hamlet that was built over the centu¬ries on a hill surrounded by vineyards, and set out to make it the most beautiful wine tourism complex in the Vaucluse.
After two years of extensive renovation, Coquillade Village opened its doors in 2008.
Date Renewal

Decorated in a contemporary and warm style, while respecting the Provençal spirit
