Domaines Bunan

Rosé Moulin des Costes Bandol 2023

9.1

Popped and poured; enjoyed on an outdoor patio on a beautiful autumn afternoon hence, no formal notes. The 2023 Domaines Bunan Rosé delivers what you want of a Rosé from Bandol: the texture and substance of Mourvèdre in a lighter, brighter package. Almost chewy, this delivers such a sense of place for the money. Drink now, on a porch, with a friend. — 8 days ago

I visited this winery in 1985 on a trip to Provence. The label’s the same! Didn’t know the wines were available in the US (assuming that’s where you are).

One of the favorites of the tasting. This 100% Grenache CDP (if my memories are good) that pinots surprisingly on red fruit notes, and olfactory referents that would lead us to Burgundy or some old Beaujolais crus (Brouilly 2006 by F. Aublanc): Potpourri, dried flowers etc. Acidity is full of promises for evolution and aging.

Un des coups de cœur de la dégustation. Ce CDP 100% (si mes souvenirs sont bons) qui pinote de manière surprenante sur des notes fruits rouges, et des référents olfactifs qui nous mènerait plus du côté de la Bourgogne voir certains vieux crus du Beaujolais (Brouilly 2006 de F. Aublanc): Pot-Pourri, fleurs séchées etc. L’acidité est pleine de promesse pour l’évolution et la garde. — 2 years ago

The favorite wine from my tasting with Matt and Paul. Stunning. layered, complex and evolved through the night. Unfortunately, the only bottle I had. Labet is getting nearly impossible to source. Excellent pair with crab mac and cheese. — 6 months ago

Lightly chilled with roast chicken on Mother’s Day night, this was exactly the kind of light-bodied but multi-dimensional red we craved. — 6 months ago

Color is medium-red, oak barrel notes, but in nice balance to the red cherry aromas and flavors, nice acid, medium-long finish, very good Alsatian Pinot Noir, which I expect will go very well with our grilled Canadian wild sockeye salmon! — 2 years ago
