Bandol, Provence, France
Touch of brett that adds to complexity. Great value for a classic Bandol.

Aug 27th, 2017Dark red violet color with baked black fruit, graphite, licorice, spice and hints of roast meat aromas. On the palate, it's medium-bodied, fresh, and expressive with a supple texture blackberry, black cherry, spice flavors and an appealing minerality. Long finish. 14.5 alcohol. Organic fruit. Mostly mourvedre with a bit of grenache and cinsault. 2012 Vintage

Very nice. Fantastic with duck breast and winter vegetables. There's cherries. And acid. AND tannin. It sits in your mouth and breaks down your gums. But the fruits keep it a delicious level.
