Bandol Rose - 2022

The sun-drenched slopes of Bandol and low-yielding vines produce a weighty, concentrated, and sublimely crisp rosé. Based on Mourvèdre, with splashes of Cinsault, Grenache, and Carignan, it features subtle citrus, stone fruit, flowers, and herbs on the nose. The palate shows an uncommon equilibrium of ripeness and elegant acidity. Its colour is limpid, brilliant and slightly salmon-coloured. Its nose develops fine aromas of candied citrus fruits and spices and its palate is fresh, balanced and supported by a beautiful aromatic persistence.

In the summer, ocean breezes attenuate heat, allowing for slow, even ripening.
