The estate and the wine |
|
|
Producing on a small scale but with high quality, Agnès Hocquard-Henry creates Bandol wines with a strong personality, marked by their rare finesse and flexibility, which age harmoniously with a delicate profile and avoid any over-maturation.
Her Mourvèdre grapes reach their pinnacle, benefiting from coastal terroirs—primarily limestone and sandy soils, some of the earliest ripening in Bandol—to draw the necessary energy and freshness.
With a 2-star rating from RVF, this now-cult winery excels across all three wine colors, showcasing the sincerity of pure fruit, voluptuousness, and natural elegance, all achieved with an impressive mastery of extraction and aging processes. |

With a model of restraint and elegance, the 2018 red Bandol Saint-Ferréol features luscious stone fruit notes, along with a smoky and truffled touch. This creates a fresh, ripe, juicy ensemble with a clean, taut structure. A very fine classic, perfectly crafted and shaped by restrained aging and fine tannins. |
