Much of the magic at Pibarnon, as with any great wine, comes from the land. The highest point in the Bandol appellation, Pibarnon's vineyards curve and cut into each stony, chalk-rich hillside, creating a series of terraces (or “restanques”) that face southeast. The minerality from this chalky terroir finds its way into the wine's perfume as notes of white pepper and flinty smoke. Blackberry jam, touches of licorice and soy, and a mouthful of black cherry juice floods the palate. Good concentration, excellent length and a velvety core tell of a delicious today and many exciting tomorrows.

Château Pibarnon Bandol Blanc 2009
France
/
Provence
The pinnacle of Provencal whites. A subtle, elegant blend of Clairette and Bourbolenc, plus a rich blend of other local white grape varietals for complexity. Soft and inviting in its aromas, with suggestions of jasmine, linden and hawthorn; the mouth delivers bright, ripe and lacy flavors of summer apricots and white peach. The finish suggests a hint of white pepper and fresh almonds. Very enticing and very rare.

cherry that are flanked by tobacco box notes. Lithe yet powerful, with a
long, elegant and finely chiseled finish of slate and white pepper.
Drink now through 2015. ” — The Wine Spectator
