White wine is a minor part of the output of Bandol, the small but highly-thought-of appellation in Provence, yet there are some exceptional examples. Most noteworthy of all is the outstanding white of Domaine Tempier, Bandol’s flagship estate. The wine is dominated by the Clairette grape variety, which is, although a fairly rich wine, amazingly fresh, with added floral, mineral notes and ever-so-subtle fruits such as white currant and quince.

60% Clairette Blanc, 18% Ugni Blanc, 19% Bourboulenc & 3% Marsanne.

Description

This 18-hectare piece of land bought in 2016 is oriented east, south–east, located at 300 meters altitude. It is a terroir with an exceptional potential, mostly composed of sandy marl of the santonien. Its cooler orientation is what interested us. As it is less hot, it is mostly used to emphasize the freshness of white and rosé wines. Historically this terroir was considered the reference for Bandol in these two colors. Some old vintages show it’s still possible to make great red wines too.
