Château Barbanau is a family estate now run by Sophie Cerciello and her husband Didier Simonini. It extends over 20 hectares in the extreme west of the Côtes de Provence appellation, on a terroir combining clay and limestone, on the slopes of a hill overlooking the sea.
The family's winegrowing history began in 1900, when Emile Bodin, the family's great-grandfather, chose to become a winemaker in Cassis. He created the Clos Val Bruyère vineyard. In 1989, the family acquired Château Barbanau, whose cellar had been abandoned and the entire harvest sold to the cooperative since 1960. The entire Château Barbanau estate was restored, and the first vintage was produced the same year.
Clos Val Bruyère is a 7.5-hectare parcel of land bearing the imprint of Emile Bodin, in the heart of the Cassis vineyards.

Since 2008, the entire Château Barbanauvineyard has been cultivated using certified organic methods, and certified biodynamic methods since the 2018 vintage.
