Domaine de Terrebrune Blanc Bandol AOP – 2024

This remarkable white wine from the small region of Bandol, between Marseilles and Toulon, is a blend of Clairette and Ugni Blanc. It has lovely tension and perfectly balanced fruit and acidity.
2024 was an excellent vintage for white wines in the area and has given noticeable acidity and fruit concentration. The wine finishes with a bite of limestone minerality from the pure limestone terroir the vines are situated in.

With its power and complexity, combined with a pronounced, salty minerality, this wine would be ideal with seafood, goat’s cheese, herbes de Provence, scallops, or exotic and spicy dishes.

“A blend of Clairette, Ugni Blanc, Bourboulenc, Rolle and Marsanne, the 2024 Bandol Blanc from Domaine de Terrebrune opens with a delicate, floral bouquet of spring flowers, jasmine, broom and citrus. Medium- to full-bodied, lively and precise, it’s pure and tensile, framed by bright acids and concluding with a saline finish that reflects its calcareous soils. This is a graceful, age-worthy white that should evolve beautifully over the next decade.” 93/100 The Wine Advocate
