Notes from North Berkeley Imports:
"A selection of younger vines, organically raised on the same terroir as the estate’s Bandol Rouge. “Restanques” are the terraces where Mourvèdre vines grow in the estate’s natural amphitheater. 70% Mourvedre, 30% Grenache.
Château de Pibarnon sets a standard for great wines the world over. Like fine Barolo, Pibarnon Bandol is an eternal wine, growing ever more elegant and supple with time; and like grand cru Burgundy, the depth and complexity of Pibarnon Bandol is a singular, captivating experience. With its perch at the highest point in the appellation, its impeccable terroir and unforgettable amphitheater of vines, Pibarnon unquestionably crafts the finest Mourvèdre-based wines in Bandol.
