Aromas of leather, tree bark and black fruits. A rich and powerful ultra savoury wine with ripe black fruits, a dash of black pepper and fading raspberry- silky intensity. Works perfectly with BBQ Lamb Chops. Still going strong at 18 years from a good year in Bandol. The following night - consistent notes. Predominantly Mourvèdre in the blend together with Grenache and Cinsault I believe but not sure of the exact percentages. In 2004 it was 90% Mourvèdre and 10% Grenache. — 24 days ago
Red fruits on the nose with earth notes.
Medium plus in body with medium acidity.
Dry on the palate with red and black fruits, earth, light wood, light mushrooms, spices and peppercorn.
Tannic and still young, with nice complexity.
A blend of 85% Mourvèdre and 15% Grenache. Aged in large French oak barrels for 19 months.
14% alcohol by volume.
90 points.

Delicious summer drinking. Great with cheese and crackers while floating on the river. Notes of peach, a little bit of white flowers and grapefruit, and mineral on the tail. No bitterness that I sometimes find in (cheaper) rosé or Sauvignon blanc. — 8 days ago
White flowers, strawberry, rhubarb, white peach. Medium bodied with structured acidity. Lovely on a hot day but has enough heft to pair well with salmon pasta. — 10 days ago

Very light salmon in color.
Strong nose of limes, grapefruits, light red fruits, citrus, green apples, earth and minerals.
Medium bodied with medium acidity. Crisp and refreshing.
Dry on the palate with light strawberries, limes, grapefruits, bitter herbs and earth.
Tangy finish with limes and light earth.
This is a refreshing Rosé from Bandol. Well balanced and easy drinking. Showing nice complexity with a soft mouthfeel.
Still young, and needs a few years in the bottle to mature properly, but already starting to drink very nicely.
Good by itself or with food.

Drinking beautifully now, although still young, and will continue to age nicely in the next 10 to 15 years.
