The taste of senses

THE RESTAURANT

Philippe Chevrier’s stronghold since 1986, Domaine de Châteauvieux is a land of character and history. It was in this iconic gastronomic venue that the chef built his reputation and developed his cuisine over 40 years. Far from ephemeral trends and fashions, he remains faithful to tradition.

In 2024, two Chefs join Philippe Chevrier’s brigade: François Periers, Head Chef, and Manuel Pereira, Pastry Chef. A complementary duo who share the Maître de Maison’s ambition: to offer tasty, refined cuisine, expressing the excellence of the finest produce.

Renowned for its cuisine, Domaine de Châteauvieux is also famous for the quality of its front-of-house service, provided by Esteban Valle, an emblematic figure at Domaine de Châteauvieux for 30 years.
