The wine region of Bandol
Provençal jewel between Cassis and Toulon, kingdom of Mourvèdre (50-95% in red). Signature powerful reds with notes of black blackberry, garrigue, pepper, leather, truffle and a balsamic touch, firm tannins and superb ageing (10-30 years) — French benchmark for the grape. Structured, gastronomic rosés (strawberry, citrus, spices) — not a simple aperitif rosé. Rare, mineral Clairette and Bourboulenc whites.
The wine region of Provence
World capital of dry, refined rosé (~90% of production). Pale rose-petal colour, delicate nose of fresh red fruits (strawberry, raspberry, redcurrant), citrus (pink grapefruit), white flowers and a mineral touch, taut and thirst-quenching palate — the Mediterranean aperitif par excellence. Blends of Grenache, Cinsault, Syrah, Tibouren and Mourvèdre. Fleshy Bandol reds from Mourvèdre (leather, garrigue, age-worthy), straight Cassis whites.
The word of the wine: Animal
Generic smell of aromatic families reminiscent of fur, game, musk, civet, amber and sometimes unpleasant smells of wet hair. The old books on tasting give as an example of animal aroma the belly of hare.
