Carte Blanche

La Bastide Blanche

Bandol Mourvedre Blend 2022

Dark ruby in color with a reddish rim.

Fresh nose of red and black fruits with light spices.

Medium plus in body with medium acidity.

Dry on the palate with mild complexity.

Showing raspberries, black currants, cooked cherries, spices, light oak, licorice and black pepper.

Tangy finish with round tannins and tangy cherries.

This Mourvèdre from Bandol is still very young, yet tasty and already enjoyable, even by itself.

Tannic, and needs 10 years in the bottle to mature properly.

Good by itself or with food.

A blend of 81% Mourvedre, 9% Grenache, 8% Cinsault and 2% Carignan. Aged in large oak barrels for 18 months.

14.5% alcohol by volume.

90 points.

$40.
