Encyclopedic overview
One of the many benches in Buisson, this one situated on the north side of the village pictured in winter 2022 Buisson ( French pronunciation: [bɥisɔ̃] ; Occitan: Boisson) is a commune in the Vaucluse department in the Provence-Alpes-Côte d'Azur region in southeastern France.
Buisson is a small, wine-producing, Knights Templar village, dating back at least as far as the 12th century, and linked since its beginning to the nearby village of Villedieu, with which it produces its principal crop, Côtes-du-Rhône wine, which is sold from their joint winery, le Cellier du Templier.
