About ChÒteau Barthès.

ChÒteau Barthès is a Bandol estate based at Bandol on the Mediterranean coast of Provence. The estate works the steep restanque-terraced slopes above the Bandol harbour, planted to the dominant Provence reds — Mourvèdre, Grenache, Cinsault — that define the Bandol AOC.

Bottle questions

Before you open it.

A few practical answers for storage, delivery, and choosing the right bottle.

How should I store it before opening?

Keep it somewhere cool, dark, and steady. Wine prefers cellar temperature; spirits are happier away from heat and direct sunlight.

How long will it keep once opened?

Wine changes quickly after opening; spirits and liqueurs generally hold longer if capped tightly and kept out of heat. If it is a special bottle, ask before opening and the team can give product-specific guidance.

Can I ask for a similar bottle?

Yes. Contact Caravan with this bottle name and the occasion; the team can suggest a close match, a safer gift, or a step up or down in price.

How is it packed for delivery?

Orders are packed in bottle-safe cartons. If anything arrives damaged or looks wrong, contact the team with your order number and a photo so they can sort the next step.

What about hot weather shipping?

The team avoids making one-size-fits-all promises around heat and carrier timing. For heat-sensitive or cellar bottles, contact Caravan before ordering and they can advise the safest dispatch window.

Why Caravan backs ChÒteau Barthès

Provence

"ChÒteau Barthès sits in the Bandol AOC zone, the Provence appellation built around Mourvèdre — the powerful, structured red variety that needs the long Bandol summers and amphitheatre-shaped Mediterranean exposure to ripen fully. The Bandol AOC requires a minimum 50% Mourvèdre in red and rosé blends.
