There is no word in English for Caudalie. Nor does Les Sources de Caudalie have any equivalent! It is a unique concept that brings together the sophistication of the grape, the art of haute cuisine, the Grand Cru Chateau Smith-Haute-Lafitte and thermal springs. Rejuvenation finds many forms at this hotel and spa whose luxurious style is a therapy in itself.

The french skincare company will open its second SPA in the US, in the revamped Plaza Hotel in New York in October 2007. Designed by French architect Yves Collet, who did Caudalie’s other SPAs, the 800m² spa includes 15 cabins, the brand’s signature wine barrel bath and a jacuzzi.

It will also feature a retail area with the brand’s products range. Based on the powerful anti-oxidant qualities of grapes, Caudalie is a potent force against skin ageing. A brand that began at a family winery in Bordeaux in France has blossomed into Caudalie, the world’s leading vinotherapy skincare line. The first to use (and patent) stabilised grape seed polyphenols in skincare, Caudalie packs cutting edge antioxidant technology into formulas that help your skin look better with age. The line accounts for all skin types and offers luxurious and effective products for both face and body. All Caudalie products are paraben free.

The firm, which launched its first SPA in France in 1999, now operates in France, Italy, Spain, Taiwan, California
