  • Since 1988
Founded in 1988 with the creation of the Protected Designation of Origin AOP Luberon, La Royère has belonged to the Hugues family for several generations.

The estate has continued to evolve over the years and in 1995 a copper still was installed to distil the marc from the raisins. In 2014, the cellar was completely rebuilt and now consists of a set of concrete, stainless steel and fiber vats, as well as a barrel cellar in the basement.

La Royère initiated in 2017 a transition to organic farming practices, which led to the obtaining in 2020 of the organic label certification from the Ecocert organization.

In 2018, the activity diversified with the construction of an olive oil mill. Trees had been planted on the estate around 2005 and their fruits were beginning to bloom. La Royère has since positioned herself as an ambassador of the Cretan Diet.

To show this ancestral activity beyond the modern mill, a museum dedicated to the history of olive oil opened its doors the following year. A boutique and a new tasting room have been created jointly.
