Between the Durance and the Luberon, Alpes-de-Haute-Provence grows Provence's highest vineyard: the Pierrevert AOC around Manosque, whose altitude gives rosés and reds of singular freshness. A wine estate for sale in Alpes-de-Haute-Provence often combines vines, olive trees and lavender — Provençal farming in all its diversity.
The market is confidential but sought after: estates here offer coherent ensembles, with Provençal buildings and preserved surroundings, at values far below the neighbouring Var or Luberon.
The Pierrevert appellation steps between 400 and 500 metres: cool nights, slow ripening, aromatic profiles that warming makes more precious every year. Grenache, syrah and cinsault dominate, with vermentino for the whites.
Altitude freshness is becoming a patrimonial argument: Provençal operators look here for the coolness reserves the coast is losing. For buyers, due diligence covers irrigation water (Durance network) and the condition of the often-old plantings.
