8 km from Tulette Between le Comtat Venaissin and the Dauphiné, it hosts the famous Université du Vin, the Wine University. First mention of it as a village can be traced back to the 13th century. It was a priory of the Order of Saint Benoît in the 11th century. Fief of the Princes of Orange and then of the Maison des Baux, it became a Comté in the course of the 16th century and then, in the 17th century, a Marquisat, dependent on the La Baume-Suze, the last Seigneurs of Suze. |
