2*Coup de Coeur

Hachette

"Very comfortable with rosé, the Barthès family also knows their way around white wine. Witness this 2015 vintage, luminous in every sense of the word, made from Clairette (50%), Ugni Blanc (40%) and a hint of Rolle and Sauvignon. A Bandol appreciated for its intense and elegant fruitiness, its supple and mineral attack, its perfectly balanced liveliness, and its remarkable length. A (very) delicious pairing with seafood." (Le Guide Hachette des Vins 2017)

Rated estate (2017 guide) 1*Star (A serious, recommendable production, in line with what one would expect from its appellation(s))

About the estate:

This estate in Le Beausset is a consistently good source of remarkably well-made rosés and whites. Monique Barthès, who switched from modeling to the equally noble profession of winemaker, runs the show, assisted by her son Philippe in the winemaking process.
