The White Bastide

La Bastide Blanche: an invitation to the heart of Provençal flavors

 

In the heart of the Var, in the charming village of Trans-en-Provence, lies a hidden gem: La Bastide Blanche, an exceptional olive grove covering 5 hectares. This estate, steeped in history and traditions, embodies the love of the land and respect for Provençal agricultural heritage.

 

Primarily made up of Picholine, an iconic variety of the region, La Bastide Blanche benefits from a unique terroir. Bathed in the generous Provençal sun and sheltered by an ideal Mediterranean climate, this olive grove produces olives of incomparable aromatic richness. The Picholine, renowned for its delicately fruity flavor, vegetal notes, and subtle hint of bitterness, is the purest expression of Provençal authenticity.

 

But diversity is also at the heart of this olive grove. Alongside the Picholine, about a hundred trees of Cayon and Ascolana enrich the estate. The Cayon charms with its rich, slightly spicy aromas, while the Ascolana, with its fleshy olives and exquisite sweetness, adds a delicate and refined touch to each harvest. Together, these varieties form a symphony of flavors, with each olive contributing to an exceptional olive oil.

 

At La Bastide Blanche, every step of production is a tribute to tradition. From the meticulous harvest to the respectful extraction method, everything is designed to preserve the integrity and quality of this natural treasure. The result? An exquisite olive oil, full of purity and authenticity, a true concentrate of Provence that invites your senses on a journey to the heart of this sunlit land.
