  • Les Cabanons

    You are here in the heart of the Châtillon vineyard, with its typical cabanons. There are more than 300 in the canton of Die, and nearly 70 in the commune of Châtillon-en-Diois alone. Many of these are simple tool huts, often accompanied by a rainwater harvesting system needed for phytosanitary treatments. Others have one or two rooms and have a fireplace. Nowadays very degraded for some, some cabanons are the subject of an important restoration.
  • Serre du Poêt

    The vineyard of Châtillon-en-Diois produces wines of Appellation d'Origine Controlée (AOC). It combines 65 ha of vines making it one of the smallest appellations. The vineyard extends over the foothills of the Vercors, which protects it from the winds of the North. It produces red and rosé wines, from gamay syrah and pinot noir grapes, as well as white wine from aligoté and chardonnay grape varieties.
