Domaine du Gros' Noré
Bandol Mourvedre Blend
Tart plum jam with a core of cast iron. My go-to for a Canadian Fall evening, HNIC and a 🔥 going…. Surprised at how nicely these age, needed 45 min decant.

Jan 25th, 2020May be the most cellar-worthy wine I've come across for under $40! Still brooding, but incredibly pure, smooth and broad. Dark fruit laced with cocoa powder. Find this and sock it away.

May 7th, 2017Brooding and intense. Ripe black cherry and sweet plum, powerful gritty tannins with a tinge of iron. Amazing purity for something so big. Got better every minute it lasted in my glass...too few. Will get way better.
