Drinking window : 15-20 yrs Mourvèdre thrives here, taking on the chewy density that defines Bandol reds. Close your eyes and you may, in fact, mistake it for a darker wine, with its musky, floral fruit scents and meaty cherry flavors; meanwhile, notes of forest floor and sea spray place the wine squarely on the Mediterranean coast. It’s ready for sliced steak salads this summer, or a long spell in the cellar. 96/100 RVF: " La sécheresse de ce millésime n'a pas impacté l'éclat du fruit de ce Bandol. Bien au contraire, sa chair laisse couler une fine sucrosité envoûtante. Derrière une bouche immédiatement charmeuse se révèle une superbe profondeur saline et florale. Un grain de tanin doux, classique de son merveilleux terroir du Trias (sol d'argiles brunes vieilles de 250 millions d'années). Brillant."
