Caravinsérail is a wine story. The name echoes the
caravansary of the desert, a propitious place for travelers
to rest, meet and relax in a congenial atmosphere.
In partnership with skilled winemakers, Caravinsérail
produces wines of quality and pleasure from grapes of
the South of the Rhone valley terroirs and of the Ventoux
appellation in particular. Thus « in fine », the first born,
is the result of a careful selection of two traditional
AOC Ventoux grapes, grenache and syrah.

The project was born in 2002 from the association of two winemakers :
Jean Marot, who owned at the time the Domaine Le Murmurium, and
Raphaël Trouiller, who had just created the Domaine de Cascavel with
another partner. Caring for the environment and eager to make authentic
wines, they both adopted organic farming standards.

Caravinsérail grew bigger; it has been and still is extending its offer with wines from the AOCs of the South of the Rhone Valley and Vins de Pays from the same area. It ranges from light and easy wines at a very affordable price,
to more elaborate and complex cuvees for special occasions. With the same deep concern for farming practices, all wines come from organic vineyards or sustainable estates.

Today, Raphaël is exclusively dedicated to Caravinsérail. The vineyards of
the Domaine de Cascavel have been sold in 2009 but the name and the
spirit of Cascavel remain vivid in the high-end cuvées. Didier Robert,
who has been the two winemakers’ œnologist for several years, takes now an
active part in the wine selection. His expertise as manager of the
œnologist Office (ICV) in Beaumes de Venise, added to his extended
knowledge of the terroirs and producers of the region, is a valuable asset
to the company. Jean has withdrawn from Caravinsérail a few years ago
but is still a regular and appreciated taster, as well as a close friend.

Caravinsérail sells its wines in France and abroad, namely in the Benelux,
Germany, Denmark, the United States, China and Japan. Specific projects are
carried out for customers who wish to have their own customized wine.
Caravinsérail is aiming at and looking forward to strengthening and
extending its partnership with its clients in France and abroad.
