Domaine du Bagnol

Cassis Clairette Blend 2025

Classic Provence for summertime. Really nails that rosé vibe people want for the pools and the beaches. Easy drinking, strawberry, lychee, stone fruit and melon, dry, mineral and crisp, surprisingly long finish with notes of cotton candy, saffron and salt. A bit vegetal. — 3 months ago

Domaine du Gros' Noré

Bandol Blanc Ugni Blanc Clairette 2025

Strawberry nose, candied strawberries. Very slightly frizzante. Delicious but not overtly complex. One can see why this particular assemblage, named for the pet/colloquial name of Honoré Pascal: The Big.
Supposedly not only was he large, but mellow. Drinking this all day could do that.
But I digress, It’s somewhat indistinct on the palette…but I don’t think that’s the intent. It goes down SO easily and is good with summer foods , that’s the point. There’s a trace of bitterness that’s welcome on the finish. It could be that there are those of us who are inclined towards southern French delicate ones.
Interestingly, on day 2 this was much more interesting and went swimmingly with homemade Baba Ganouj and Chicken in Kubbe sauce(a Middle Eastern chickpea, carrot , celery and spice soup we transformed into a sauce). Along with some Harrisa….
Think I’ll have to revise that silly score.
With Randy.

La Reine Blanche Sancerre Sauvignon Blanc 2025

2025 vintage. Sense of place, balance and harmony. What I generally like about Sancerre blanc written would fill the entirety of your thumbnail. This, however, is clean, has some mineralité and drinking well now with extra concentration and length of finish oomph. Picked up 3 cases. 8.12.26. — a month ago

Bandol Grenache Blend Rosé 2025

Clear pale salmon. Medium + intensity on the nose with strawberry, blood orange, geranium leaf, pink grapefruit, tomato leaf, white peach. On the palate dry, medium + acidity, medium + intensity medium body, long finish and medium alcohol with notes of grapefruit, red cherry, grass, white peach and something plastic that I can't quite identify but isn't undesirable. Outstanding wine and fun to drink on its own without food. Creamy and sophisticated — 2 months ago

@Peter van den Besselaar, is this a special cuvée/bottling of this wine?

@Doug Powers No. The pilanthropist Osiris gifted the chateau to the French state in 1907. It has been a viticulture school ever since.
