About Ch. de Trinquevedel
On a small trail, off of the road to Nîmes on the outskirts of Tavel, surrounded by its 32 hectares of vineyards, proudly stands the Château de Trinquevedel. Eugène holds his breath, overcome with emotion…. He still remembers that year of 1936 when he acquired the elegant 13th-century estate, overrun with wild weeds, determined to revive its former viticultural employment.
