Bandol Mourvedre 1988

1988. My birth year. I dont remember much about that time of my life but this bottle wont be forgotten in the crevasses of time either.

What was striking was that this 35 year old still had some years left, some structure and still needed a few swirls to open. Boot leather and a really pleasant smoke scent came out. Mild baking spice, and dried fruit. Was totally enjoyable. Would love to have compared it to a younger version.

Cuvée Longue Garde Bandol Mourvedre Blend 2004

This was the Longue Garde cuvee. Better the second day, or just Garde it for Longue-er. Similar to the regular Bandol but with more heft and a pronounced topnote of cedar. — 6 months ago

Clos du Cellier Aux Moines Givry 1er Cru Pinot Noir 2021

Light bodied without being a pushover. Bright fruit, almost a bit green like unripened strawberries with a constant bitter note throughout - like unsweetened cacao nibs — 9 days ago

Vesprée Bandol Rosé Blend 2021

Popped and poured; enjoyed over three days. Delicious on Day 1; sensational on Day 3. In the glass, the 2021 “Vesprée” pours a stunning blood orange color nearing a brilliant fuchsia at the core, which is transparent. Medium viscosity. On the nose, the wine is developing with fascinating notes of strawberry, kiwi, those glazed candied citrus slices you see in the European sweet shops, rose water, and wet stone. On the palate, the wine is dry with low tannin and medium+ acid. Confirming the notes from the nose with the addition of red plums. Juicy. There’s a long mineral finish and a killer texture. Wow…this is easily the most exciting rosé that I’ve had since the Tondonia Rosado. But while the Tondonia makes you think, the Vesprée melts your heart with its sheer beauty. I think you could age this? I have another bottle…I might just do it for science. Drink now (with a decant if possible). I was great on the pop and pour but it was even better with air. Lovely.

Bandol Mourvedre - Cinsault Rosé Blend 2021

After 2 years of storage, I’m trying this again on a gorgeous 65-degree Sunday. Still tasty, but more raisin on the nose and the acidity is definitely fading. Smooth and mellow at this point, but might be nearing the end of its drinking window. — 2 months ago
