Château Vannières
Bandol Mourvedre Blend
Bandol, Provence, France
Dark ruby in color with a wide reddish rim.
Fruity nose with red fruits, earth, tobacco and wild flowers.
Medium bodied with medium plus acidity.
Dry on the palate with cherries, raspberries, spices, light wood, tobacco, herbs and dark chocolates.
Tangy finish with fine grained tannins and tangy raspberries.
This is a very tasty Mourvèdre from Bandol. Elegant and nicely balanced. Complex, easy drinking and interesting.
Still young, but already enjoyable, even by itself. Will continue to age nicely in the next 10 to 15 years.
Good by itself or with food, and would pair nicely with game meats.
A blend of 95% Mourvedre and 5% Grenache. Aged for 22 months in large French oak barrels.
