Château Guilhem Tournier
Information
- Description
- Château Guilhem Tournier, a family story. 12 hectares of vines planted in the Bandol appellation area, cultivated using organic and biodynamic farming methods, originating from old family vineyards dating back to the 18th century. From an old winemaking family, Guilhem Tournier established his estate in 2004 at Lieu-dit La Malissonne in La Cadière d’Azur, on 6 hectares within the Bandol appellation.
