Domaine de Terrebrune
Bandol Mourvedre Blend
Bandol, Provence, France
Musty, earthy, green apple. Great savory quality. Not bad for a quick fix of bright fruit and length.

This is a beaut. Perfume and earth. Garden soil and woodland scrubs and evergreen shrubbery. Slight floral undertone. Spicy, tobacco and leather. Medium bodied, highly tannic, deserves a decent decant for being 12 years old. God, I love Mourvèdre.

Dried rosemary, lavender, fennel, floral. Some dark, creamy black fruit, baked earth, some leather. And continues to evolve in the Glas. Precise, fresh, beautiful!!
On the palate - fresh, polished yet with such depth & character. The quality of the tannins is mind blowing. So polished, so fine yet monumental at the same time. And in this frame - juicy, fresh, floral acidity and just a touch of black fruit. Brilliant, quirky, bordering on profound, and so delicious at the same time. What a wine!!!

La Fable with salmon terrine and beef Bourguignon. Nicely aged. Not oaky. Fruity but not too. Subtle chewy. Smooth finish. Sipper or with food.
