Les Baux de provence
Located at the foot of the majestic Château des Baux-de-Provence, in the heart of the Alpilles mountains, Moulin CastelaS is much more than an olive oil estate: it’s an invitation to discover the soul of Provence through a unique sensory and immersive experience. Among sun-drenched olive groves, exceptional olive oils, and time-honored expertise, Catherine, Jean-Benoît, and their daughter Émilie Hugues open the doors of their mill to visitors seeking authenticity.
