LES SOURCES DE CAUDALIE
History & Story
Les Sources de Caudalie, five star- hotel, is inspired by the « French Paradox », discovered over 20 years ago. This refers to a study proving that the French diet and lifestyle, particularly in Southwest France, is conducive to good health. Statistics and reports by cardiologists showed the positive effects of wine consumption with regard to fighting cardiovascular disease. With the aim of living out this French Paradox in the most enjoyable way, Les Sources de Caudalie are devoted to sharing the French lifestyle with their guests in the heart of the wine country, maintaining local traditions and focusing on quality at all levels. They have established a place in tune with nature – a pinnacle of good taste, sensuality, and well-being.

Fun Facts
The chef takes incredible care to ensure that everything is fresh, even to the point of picking from the garden at meal times and immediately cooking the ingredients!
Alice Tourbier decided to continue and expand the experiment. An 800m2 vegetable garden dedicated to La Grand’Vigne restaurant has been created in the heart of the park adjacent to the hotel. Continuing this initiative, Alice Tourbier has installed some hives in proximity to the vegetable garden. They allow better pollination and guarantee good harvests”. Actually, as a tribute to them the space has been renamed Le Jardin des Abeilles (The Bee Garden). Twenty chickens have also taken up residence in the park. They supply the kitchens with fresh 100% organic eggs, exclusively for a signature entrée of the two-star La Grand’Vigne restaurant. Emilion, a white dwarf billy goat and Estéphe, a pretty mottled nanny goat, rapidly joined them. These adorable, very affectionate animals will undoubtedly delight children and their parents alike!
