Domaine de la Tour du Bon Bandol Blanc 2023
Location: France, Provence, Bandol
Winemaker: Agnès Henry
Grapes: 85% Clairette, 10% Rolle, 5% Ugni Blanc
Winemaking: Organic and biodynamic farming. Fermentations take place in open top cement vats with wild yeast and normally last about three weeks; she pumps over occasionally to get oxygen to the yeasts. Following Bandol’s requirements, the reds are aged in wood (a mix of foudres and barrels) for a minimum of eighteen months. The wines are not fined or filtered. Domaine de la Tour du Bon wines are traditional and unmanipulated, offering a pure and unique expression of Bandol.
From the Producer: The principle is elementary my dear Watson: neither too much nor too little.
This wine is like the light of spring...; as good as the sweet surf of the sea or a bird's song. It keeps us in balance between water and air. We feel good with him like in a hammock. Not demonstrative, it evokes simple things: a white flower, a butterfly flight, a flute air. Suave, it touches the notes of pear, anise, with a zest of lemon, barely iodised. Its discreet charm hits the mark.
Here is put on your butterfly wings: may lightness be with you.
