Mourvedre

Bandol Rosé Blend 2022

Ming L
9.1

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.

I would say in many cases, the gold standard for Provence rosés. A property my wife & I visited in 2015.

Château de Pibarnon (Comte de Saint Victor)

Bandol Mourvedre Blend 2021

Dark ruby in color with a wide reddish rim.

Red fruits on the nose and medium plus in body with medium acidity.

Dry on the palate with nice complexity and mouthfeel.

Long finish with round tannins and tangy cherries.

This young Mourvedre from Bandol is starting to drink beautifully now. Already showing nice complexity and good balance, and will continue to age nicely in the next 10 to 15 years.

Soft and elegant. Complex and interesting. Easy drinking and good by itself or with food.

A blend of 90% Mourvedre and 10% Grenache. Aged in used French oak barrels for 18 months.

14.5% alcohol by volume.

92 points.

$60.

I have a cold, but it has a strong, yet enjoyable flavor. I like how dark of a wine it is. — 17 days ago

Domaine Tempier

Cuvée La Tourtine Bandol Mourvedre Blend 2021

Bucket list wine. Always wanted to try the red but it is elusive. Some say it’s the Grand Cru of Provence. Found it at Grand Barrail in Bordeaux FR. It is decadent, I’d have it again any day. — 2 months ago

@Dave - Two weeks worth of wines notes disappeared from my page too. But I was curious if they had completely disappeared or just from my page. So I searched for a couple of them, and turns out they’re still somewhere on the app. Just not on my page.
