Right wine, right time. Everything integrated, tannins poking out but unobtrusively.

1993 might be the ultimate Bandol sleeper vintage.

En Magnum. This is absolutely beautiful, dark fruits, still some underlying structure, just the slightest kiss of Brett, great balance, long, lingering finish, great Bandol from a great vintage!!

En magnum. Rich, earthy, Provençal herbs, still quite youthful and fresh, long finish, really an amazingly fine Bandol that still needs aging!!

1993...shit this was delicious. Anthony Peros describes it as black smokey fruit, long finish and worthy at standing up to a big steak like this. I can't wait to have another.
