Exploring Bandol

November 2015
 On our first morning in the La Cadiere-d'Azur village we did what the French do on Market Day, grab your panier and head out the door!  I spotted a Madame and followed her around the corner to find the beautiful stalls of fresh fruits, vegetables, bread and cheese.  We were now ready to jump in the car and explore the vineyards and taste some of those distinctive Bandol reds.

               Driving up to Chateau de Pibarnon and catching a fantastic view of the Mediterranean.

                                                                   Chateau de Pibarnon

                                    Domaine Tempier- owned by the Tempier Family since 1834.

                                                                    Rough and rocky soil.

                                          Stunning color driving out of Domaine Tempier.

                                    Dinner in the charming seaside town Sanary-sur-Mer.
