Bandol Mourvedre Blend 2013

This was awesome! PnP. Insane nose. Bouquet of flowers with subtle earthy tones. Excellent depth and balance on the palate. Super refined. Awesome QPR. Glad I have 5 more bottles! — 3 days ago

Excellent. Also had it there 2 months ago on a Provence bike trip. — 19 days ago

Domaine du Gros' Noré

Bandol Mourvedre Blend 2011

Tart plum jam with a core of cast iron. My go-to for a Canadian Fall evening, HNIC and a 🔥 going…. Surprised at how nicely these age, needed 45 min decant. — 2 months ago

Does that much age soften its minerality?

Yeah - particularly after some air (60+ mins)

Château Pradeaux

Bandol Mourvedre 2004

All of the garrigue. Tasted alongside the Longue Garde version but this was the superior wine for right now. — 22 days ago

Really lovely wine. Great fruit, amazing texture. This used to be much more affordable, so a bit less QPR these days. Will love to see how this grape (Tibouren / Rossese) does in our Applegate Valley vineyard! — 19 days ago

Clos Ste. Magdeleine

Cassis Blanc Marsanne Blend 2022

2022 vintage. 40% Marsanne. 25% Clairette. 30% Ugni Blanc. 5% Bourboulenc. Medium-bodied. For those times when you don't want bubbles, Chardonnay or Sauvignon Blanc...perfect shellfish and white-fleshed fish pairing along with lunch salads and lighter soups. Or, you could just sip it by the seaside. Tastes entirely appropriate. 10.18.23. — 2 months ago
