"This vintage unfolds in a material that benefits from perfect extraction, with a nose built of black fruit, notes of truffle, supple oak, a loose bouquet, everything is complex and charming on a tannin that opens with panache without upsetting the freshness. In the final frame, a radiant bitterness and extra woodiness. That's what we call balance. (Le Guide RVF 2024)

Domaine de Terrebrune
Bandol
Expert opinion
Bettane & Desseauve
4-star rated estates (top-quality producers, the glories of French winegrowing)
About the domain :
A terroir within a terroir, that's how to sum up Terrebrune, a pampered estate led by a two-headed management team of Reynald Delille and Jean d'Arthuis. Situated in Ollioules, this estate near the Mediterranean plays between sea spray and first-rate limestone soil. No muscle, no great color, but wines imbued with sensitivity, to be waited for and allowed to express their aromas. More recently, Julien Paul, the brilliant technical director, has brought out the Trias and refined Terrebrune's precious grain. The 2019 vintage culminates at the pinnacle of refined, uncluttered bandols.

About the domain :
Located in the commune of Ollioules, the estate boasts 35 hectares of vines planted on terraces facing the Mediterranean Sea, and is farmed organically. The vineyard benefits from Triassic clay-limestone marl soils unique to Bandol, giving it a style all its own. The property is located just a few kilometers from the sea and benefits from sea spray, ideal for Mourvèdre.
