deep, brooding baby bandol that shines like amethyst for the price of quartz. subtle balm of oil cured kalamata olive, dried blackberry, cured beef and leather draw your nose deep into the glass. the palate delivers what the nose promises, joined by bay leaf, oregano and dank earth, framed by chewy tannin and understated acidity. sublime with braised lamb and root vegetables. #bandol #mourvedre

Easy drinking for the most part but I'm getting some acetone/plastic on the nose.

Strawberries, pepper, and a touch of funk. Slightly tannic.
