The domain has been owned by the family since 1860'ties, when a pharmacist (and mayor) from Pertuis, Louis Turcan, bought the property in Ansouis, which today bears his name and is owned by descendants even though their surname has changed. 

Until resently two brothers were running the domain, but one of them has been bought out.

The domain covers 18 ha.

At the place you´ll find quite a comprehensive wine museum.
A lot of tools from every corner of winemaking seems to be presented.

It's amazing that one man has done all the work collecting and restoring the items you find here. Two new buildings are built to show the collection - one of them is only showing different presses and the other all the other stuff.

You can rent a gîte for up to 12 persons and also a celebrate a wedding or a birthday in a room of 200m2 - everything looks very nice.
