This was stellar! 1hr+ decant. Dark red color. Barnyard nose that transformed into a floral one. Classic Bandol flavors that could be mistaken for a mature Bordeaux. A fav of mine! — 6 days ago

Herbal and a bit green. Very interesting. Would’ve called Bordeaux over Rhone/Provence. — 8 days ago

9.2

The 2023 Rosé is deep, complex and layered, with ripe nectarine, rose garden and sweet cherry fruit notes. Beautifully expressive and floral on the nose, savory, salty mineral tones meet red berry freshness and an undercurrent of spice in the mouth. A touch of almond bitterness grabs at the edges of the tongue toward the close, striking great harmony with a rounded sweetness. Bravo. (Billy Norris, Vinous, May 2024)
