The Côtes de Provence appellation is located within the geographical area of Mediterranean Provence. Bordering the Mediterranean coast, this zone extends from Fréjus to Hyères. The vineyard soils in this area originate from the weathering of rocks belonging to the Massif des Maures and the Estérel.

The climate of the appellation area is particularly suited to vine cultivation. It is Mediterranean in type and therefore characterized by long, hot, dry and sunny summers (approx. 3000 hours per year), and by mild and rainy winters.
