- Villa La Coste hotel, multiple restaurants
Château La Coste is the Paddy McKillen biodynamic vineyard north of Aix — the cellar by Jean Nouvel, the visitor centre by Tadao Ando, the art walk that includes Frank Gehry, Renzo Piano and Louise Bourgeois pieces installed across the vines. The Villa La Coste hotel takes the long-stay guests and the multiple restaurants — including the Hélène Darroze table — run through the season.
Book the art walk for the morning, take the lunch at the Tadao Ando pavilion afterwards, stay the night at Villa La Coste for the full programme. The estate is the rare Provence address that the international art-and-wine clients still build the long Aix weekend around — and the kind of address that the long-stay visitors return to across the seasons for the rotating exhibitions.
The art-and-wine weekend on the long Aix stay.
