2020 Domaine Tempier Bandol Rose #147672973
Reviews 93 points Vinous "Light orange-pink. Expressive, mineral-accented orange zest, red currant, nectarine and succulent floral and herb aromas take on a spicy nuance with air. Lively and sharply focused in the mouth, offering concentrated red berry, pit fruit, tangerine and honeysuckle flavors and a hint of tarragon. The mineral and floral notes drive an impressively long, precise finish that leaves white peach and spice notes behind. (JR)"

About Domaine Tempier
Domaine Tempier has a rich history dating back to 1834, but it wasn't until the 1930s, when newlyweds Lulu and Lucien were gifted the vineyard by Lulu's grandfather, that the winery truly began to make a name for itself. Lucien was particularly fascinated by the way the Mourvèdre grape and the terroir of Bandol seamlessly worked together. At that time, Bandol was not yet an AOC, but Lucien and Lulu were instrumental in giving this small area a big reputation, with Lucien considered the Godfather of Bandol.
Domaine Tempier's rosé is truly exceptional, offering a unique and serious hedonistic experience that puts porch pounders to shame. It's the perfect balance of juicy freshness and complexity, capable of aging up to 15 years and perfectly paired with rich foods. The Mourvèdre from Domaine Tempier is also truly remarkable, offering sumptuous fruit, spice, and a supple, full body that remains unmatched. For wine lovers looking to explore Provence wines, Domaine Tempier is a must-try.
