Domaine Souviou
(Winery in Var)

The history of Domaine Souviou traces back nearly two millennia when men fleeing Roman attacks settled in a hidden valley in the Massif de la Sainte Baume. The estate's rich history is documented from the 16th century when the Bonnasse family, prominent Provençal notables, began cultivating the land. Over centuries, the family developed the estate by building terraces and planting olive trees and vines. In the 20th century, the property saw periods of abandonment and restoration, with the Cagnolari family revitalizing it in 1984. In 2011, Roger Jaar acquired the estate, modernizing it while preserving its traditional agriculture of vines and olive trees, and enhancing its international presence with ventures like a wine bar in Miami.
