Baron La Rose
Domaine Tempier
Bandol Rosé Blend 2022
I would say in many cases, the gold standard for Provence rosés. A property my wife & I visited in 2015.
That must be a great visit @Somm David T ! What do you think of Domaine Ott?
Solid producer.
Paul Bara
Grand Cru Brut Rosé Champagne
A small portion of Pinot Noir (which makes up approximately 80% of the blend) still wine is added for color; the balance is Chardonnay. Popped and poured; enjoyed over the course of an hour. The Grand Rosé pours a pretty pink color with a persistent mousse. On the nose, the wine is developing with notes of raspberry, red apple, a mix of orchard citrus fruit, marzipan, a hint of brioche and lovely minerals. On the palate, the wine is dry with medium+ acid. Confirming the notes from the nose. The finish is medium+ and round. Very easy to like. Drink now. Disgorged February of 2025. — 2 months ago
Heard his brother Capy Bara is very laid back.

Brut Rosé Champagne 1988
Curious if it needed some time to open up. The 1990 Bolly Rosé Grand Année I had last year needed to decant for about 30min and then it was bangin.

Aromas of strawberry, pomelo, watermelon, rose petal, sea breeze, and hint of thyme. The palate adds additional red berries, citrus, and faint earthy notes. Medium body that is nicely textured. Fresh yet round acidity. There is off-dry sensation on the otherwise slightly savory medium finish.
Lovely but pricy rose. — 6 days ago
