Puyméras Pop. : 615. - Area : 15 km² Department : Vaucluse |
![]()
When you arrive on the road from Vaison-la-Romaine, the village comes into
view perched on a rocky outcrop overlooked by the ruins of its château,
destroyed in the Revolution. Puyméras is surrounded by beautiful countryside,
alternating between lavender
fields, cultivated land and unspoilt hills, with Mont Ventoux as a distant
backdrop..
As you walk along the village's narrow streets,
you'll discover beautiful old houses. Most of the shops are located at
the foot of the village, in the Barris district. A few steps away stands the Sabrun gate with its beautiful vaulting. It
is the old entrance to the village, and will bring you to the "Grand Rue"
in the heart of the village. Watch out, it's quite a climb. Worth noting: Puyméras is unusual in that it produces an organic wine, sold by the wine co-operative. Three vineyards at Puyméras cultivate organic vines and bring their harvest to the co-operative. The organic grapes are left to macerate separately, and matured in the best possible conditions.
