"Sweet caramel and blue violet aromas with a touch of acacia blossom. Structured and mineral-driven, baked pears, pineapple and gentle spice. Bright lavender, textural richness and a balanced, lingering finish. May 2025"

What the critics say

Wine Advocate
"Gently honeyed and ripe, the 2020 Bandol Blanc shows the more generous side of the appellation's white wines. Broad and mouthcoating, it's silky in feel without ever feeling overweight. Drink it on the young side, while its opulence is on full display."

Jeb Dunnuck
"Well-constituted and well-conceived, the 2020 Bandol Blanc reveals itself only gradually, in a strong minerality of candied citrus and black truffle. It is a fine, fleshy white in the meridional style, with recurring salinity, minerality, and even iodine. At the table, it calls for generous, characterful, spiced dishes. Drink now-2030."
