We're telling you about their Winery
| Since the 1970s, Château Sainte-Anne has worked its vines and grapes without artifice. It is one of Bandol's pioneers in what we now call Natural Wines. Château Sainte-Anne has been family-owned for 5 generations, and was built in the 16th century by the Congregation of the Pères de l'Oratoire, who already cultivated vines and olive trees. They built vaulted stone cellars that still exist today, but have since been restructured to comply with Bandol A.O.C. requirements. A modern cellar has been added to the old one, combining modern methods of winemaking and vineyard management with traditional practices. Now run by Françoise Dutheil de la Rochère and her son Jean-Baptiste, château is located in the Bandol appellation, and this vineyard has always made the most of its assets: geological richness (the most arid limestones with veins of pure white sand that allow deep soil drainage). | The terroir benefits from a microclimate with very cool nights from the beginning of September which allows the mourvèdre to give a perfect maturity until mid-October. Finally, one must also count on the influence of the sea air (the Mediterranean is 2 km away as the crow flies). All these parameters constitute a real ecological niche still preserved where the expression of its terroir is concentrated. In the cellar, the grapes vinified into Red, Rosé and White express their true nature with care and respect. |
