When I think of Bandol I'm usually thinking of reds and roses, not whites. But one of my favorite Bandol producers, La Bastide Blanche, puts out a great Bandol blanc. Aromas of white flowers, citrus and minerals. The palate shows a lot of cut, but also some creamy orchard and citrus fruit. The minerals and bite on the finish are really nice. Solid oyster wine.
