Too soon. Come back in a few years. — 6 months ago
From a magnum. Half decanted and half not. Didn’t really make a difference. More French than CA. Rustic nose with hints of burning wood and manure. Modest cherry fruit on the palate with cedar and earth. Medium depth and finish. Age really showed through. Not the wine I was expecting at all, but was nice. Somewhat similar to Domaine Tempier Bandol. — a year ago

Brooding Bandol. Slightly feral on opening, then got into its stride. Perhaps a little young. — 5 months ago

13.5% ABV Salute to Lulu Peyraud of Domaine Tempier in France. Lulu’s father owned the vineyard , and she along with her husband took it over. Sadly we lost her in October 2020 at the age of 102 y/o. This is a blend of old vine Mataro and Grenache. Light salmon color, watermelon initially , later apple. Very nice! — 2 years ago

[En Magnum] This is really a fabulous old Tempier “La Tourtine”, soft, balanced, just hitting its maturity and capable of further aging, very long, lingering finish, outstanding old Tempier! — a month ago
