Product Description:

Château Canadel’s Bandol is made exclusively from mourvèdre, cinsault, grenache, and syrah grown on their organically-farmed estate vineyards, located on a unique terroir in the hamlet of Le Plan du Castellet, within the famed terraces of Bandol. The vineyards of Canadel are planted on a geological anomaly, the inversion of soil layers from the birth of the Alps, known as the Renversement du Beausset. This event resulted in the Triassic layer (200 million years old) flipping on top of the Cretaceous layer (65 million years old) due to the subduction of a tectonic plate, which has surfaced the oldest rock outcroppings in the whole of the appellation.
