In the early ‘70s Michel and Louis Bronzo acquired the property of the Bastide Blanche, with an eye to produce from appellation Bandol wines the equal of more famous appellations like Châteauneuf. Their painstaking efforts were rewarded in 1993 when vintage conditions created the benchmark year to put Bandol in general and Bastide-Blanche, in particular, on the map of top producers in France. A stunning value from Bandol - hand-harvested at low yields of 36hL/ha. Entirely destemmed, 22 day fermentation on indigenous yeasts with occasional pigeage in foudre. Aged in large foudre.
