The price of vines in the Rhône Valley - Provence since 1991

Mis à jour le 27 août 2024

As we do every year, we are updating our articles on the selling prices of vines in France, and in particular :

1. for the Rhône Valley vineyards

  • in the Occitanie region in the Gard département (30),
  • in the Auvergne-Rhône Alpes region in the departments of Ardèche (07), Drôme (26), Rhône (69) and Loire (42)
  • in the Provence-Alpes-Côte d'Azur region in the department of Vaucluse (84)

2. for the Provence vineyards
in the Provence-Alpes-Côte d'Azur region in the departments of Alpes-de-Haute-Provence (04), Hautes-Alpes (05), Alpes-Maritimes (06), Bouches-du-Rhône (13) and Var (83).


Data source : The data used in this article comes from statistics published by the SAFER relating to plots larger than 70 ares (7,000 m² or 0.70 hectare) and which have been statistically processed by Agreste (the statistical department of the Ministry of Agriculture) and then published in the Journal Officiel in the "Barème indicatif de la valeur vénale moyenne des terres agricoles".

As mentioned, these market prices are purely indicative and in no way oblige you to buy or sell at the rates indicated. If you look at the details of the minimum and maximum values shown, you will see that prices generally vary widely. However, they should be taken into account to avoid any pre-emption with a price revision by the SAFER.
