The Château de Montfrin has been an important site for centuries, as it has always played host to travelers and statesmen alike, including Saint Francis of Assisi, Saint-Louis, Louis XIII, and Molière. In the late 1990s, after working in fashion and cinema, Jean-René de Fleurieu returned to Montfrin and planted 200 hectares of vineyards and olive orchards. Since its inception, everything at the château has been farmed organically, in keeping with Jean-René’s vision to produce high-quality organic wines and olive oils at excellent prices.
