The Bandol vineyards
Bandol is a French wine from the designated region of Provence vineyards around the city of Bandol, in the Var region. Considered one of the best red wines of Provence, it owes its reputation to a microclimate that is well-suited to the Mourvèdre grape variety, producing powerful, robust and very long-lasting wines. The Bandol appellation also produces a large percentage of rosé wines (64%) and a small amount of white wines (up to 5%).
