Domaine la Bastide Blanche

The Domaine de La Bastide Blanche, owned by the Bronzo family, is located in the heart of the Bandol terroir, at the foot of the commune of Le Castellet, in the Var department of France. It is on this emblematic terroir that Bastide Blanche, made up of vines aged from 40 to 80 years, flourishes in an amphitheater of hills permeated by the scent of the Mediterranean Sea. Facing south, south-east, the vineyard is planted on predominantly clay-limestone soil. Its proximity to the Sainte-Baume massif means that La Bastide Blanche is naturally tempered by the sea breeze, swept along by the mythical Mistral north wind. The vineyard extends over 50 hectares of vines partly planted on hillsides and restanques, but in a very fragmented way, offering Bastide Blanche a plurality of soils that brings a complexity appreciated in the estate's wines.
