The Bandol 2020 from Chateau De Pibarnon represents a sublime expression of the iconic winemaking region of Provence, renowned for its robust reds. This wine is predominantly composed of Mourvèdre, which contributes its charismatic tannic profile and intense aromas, enriched by a smaller percentage of Grenache that adds roundness and fruity notes.

It is produced following traditional methods that emphasize the quality and uniqueness of the terroir. In particular, the Bandol 2020 from Chateau De Pibarnon is known for its opulent bouquet reminiscent of ripe fruits such as plum and cherry, along with hints of leather and sweet spices obtained from delicate aging in wood.

On the palate, this wine shows a solid and well-balanced structure, with velvety tannins and an aromatic persistence that invites a second sip. The well-integrated acidity and complexity of flavors make it particularly suitable for accompanying red meat dishes, game, or aged cheeses. A wine that offers a genuine sensory experience reflecting the excellence of its origin.

Winery history
Family-owned property associated with the de Saint Victor family: Catherine and Henri de Saint Victor discovered and purchased the site in the late 1970s; today the estate is managed by Éric de Saint-Victor. The site and production have progressively developed across several parcels located on the heights of La Cadière-d'Azur, with a recent history documented by the estate itself.
Production philosophy
An artisanal approach that seeks to let the terroir express itself: "hedonistic" and complex wines, produced with care in the vineyard and in the cellar to highlight mourvèdre and the identity of the place. Manual work in the vineyard, respect for the parcels, and careful aging are central elements.
Terroir and vineyards
Terraced vineyards on the hills of La Cadière-d'Azur / Bandol, facing the sea, with altitudes reaching up to 300 meters. Triassic soils of marls and clay-limestone that impart freshness and minerality. The vineyard is divided into named parcels.
