Marseille and Bandol

Hi folks,

Will be in Marseille and Bandol for 3-4 days in early March. Could anyone recommend a bed and breakfast in both these places? For tasting some of Bandol wines, do we have to go outside town? What are the good wineries? Are they open on Sunday?

Thanks!

Hi

I live in the Bandol AOC area, be aware that NONE of the wineries are in Bandol, they are all within a 10-15 minute drive of Bandol. And there are no serious places to taste Bandol wine in Bandol. If you want I can organize a little tour of 2-3 wineries, no problem, if I'm around I'll be glad to help. No point wasting time with the good wineries, might as well go straight to the best... ;-)

B&B: I can recommend some directly on the winery premises, there is a nice one at Chateau Ste Anne on the east side of the AOC, and there is a smaller one, more rustic but with a breathtaking view of the Med at Tour du Bon.

Sundays can be arranged in advance sometimes, but obviously other days are better.
