Domaine La Suffrene
Bandol Mourvedre
Bandol, Provence, France
Barely opening up at nearly 20 years...big tannins, dark blackberry and plum fruit, cedar, leather and a bit of Brett. Could use a touch more acidic verve but still enjoyed

Ripe raspberry and blackberry, cedar, med acid, still quite tannic. Can't believe this is 18 yrs old!

At a really good spot right now. Opened with a ton of cinnamon and baking spice. A range of fruit types(red/black/blue) and conditions(fresh and bright but also oxidized and cooked). Earthy, dirty Mourvèdre/Brett notes on the first day but more of a dried violet/tar thing on the second day.

Very smooth and earth for a 15 year old bottle of vino. Happy Anniversary my love.

May 21st, 2013Nothing quite like aged Mourvèdre. 60% Mourvèdre, the rest Grenache and Carignane. And 15 years old. I can't adequately describe the flavors.
