Domaine Houchart - Famille Quiot

CD 12, 13114 Puyloubier

The Domaine Houchart, situated at the foot of Mont Sainte-Victoire, in the commune of Puyloubier, a stone’s throw from the ‘Via Aurelia’, was purchased in 1890 by Aurélien Houchart, a friend of Cézanne and the great-grandfather of Geneviève Quiot.

This estate, owned and directly managed by the Quiot family, comprises 90 hectares of vineyards in the Côtes de Provence and Côtes de Provence Sainte-Victoire appellations. The Quiot family owns a second estate in Côtes de Provence. From 1898 to 1941, the Domaine de Verlaque belonged to ancestors of the Quiot family. During the Second World War, the estate’s owner was Isabelle, a cousin of Magdeleine Houchart. A ward of the state and an artist at heart, Isabelle was very quickly placed under guardianship and her assets sold in order to provide for her upbringing and support her throughout her life. Several decades later, in 2002, Geneviève and Jérôme Quiot decided to buy back the Domaine de Verlaque so that it might once again become part of the family’s estate portfolio, given that the estate lies just a few kilometres from the Domaine Houchart. In 2020, the family felt it was important to revive the estate’s identity by giving it its own cuvée: a Côtes de Provence Rosé, characterised by its smoothness and elegance. The estate is closed to the public. The estate is closed to the public.
