1h0 of trip
Coeur du Var, (Heart of the Var), is a territory to discover in the centre of the department. It’s an opportunity for a beautiful stroll around wine, gastronomy and art, three elements which constitute our true art of living in Provence. The Commanderie de Peyrassol has created a foundation around contemporary art, while other domains offer more intimate collections of works of art but which will give you just as much pleasure. You will also be able to enjoy food and wine pairings proposed by talented chefs in our various wine estates.
Did You Know?
Throughout the area, Coeur du Var invites you to discover its rich heritage along its roads lined with vineyards, olive trees, and hill-perched chapels, (7 in total).
