January 26, 2019 - 三天喝掉，有一点渣子。第一天刚开始的funk比较明显，酒体中/轻。酸涩适度。后半，鼻子，口中和谐统一。第二天，接近第一天后半，不需要食物，cheese。单喝就很balanced。最好的一天。第三天，funk，不和谐 strong。口中有点heat。稍凉一下，变成了完全不同的酒，funkynose消失，酒体变轻，口味变淡。
第一瓶aged Mourvèdre.
May 2, 2018 - Compared to the 2002 Pibarnon, this has much more character, this is vraiment Bandol. Rustic in the good sense of the word, notes of animal farm and leather, dark fruit and spices and earthy notes. Good complexity now, tertiary notes but this will last a good amount of years more.
May 22, 2016 - Mature colour, nose iron and garrigue, fleshy at first on palate but dry tannins kick in on finish. Good but lacks the depth and interest of the best Bandol
March 12, 2016 - Cellartracker is so cool. It is great to read how other people think about and process a wine. Often much better than the polished critic comments. Thoroughly enjoyed this wine. It is distinctive, being a little syrupy and stewed almost like an amarone in texture. Good thick dark blue fruit which is subdued by well cloaked tannins. Medium weight.
August 9, 2012 - From magnum. From a lighter vintage which makes this more accessible at 10 years of age. A nose of tobacco, leather, animal fur and dark plums. Nicely mature and complex palate. Jesper compares this to mature Bordeaux. At BBQ/pool party chez Jesper and Maria at Mandlieu.
May 13, 2012 - Excellent. Dark brambly fruits, leather, meats, really nice flavor impact and just a bit of tannins left to be resolved. Rustic in the best sense of the word. This is just starting to enter a nice drinking window, particularly if paired with the appropriate food. Really enjoyed this. Drink now or hold, you'll be rewarded either way.
May 3, 2011 - A very tasty French wine for someone who drinks mostly California cabs. Earthy and chochlaty, with a brownish color. Light on the palate, with a medium aftertaste. A bit syrupy, like eating raisins instead of grapes.
January 3, 2011 - rustic, great acidity, and structure, provincial herbs and gamy meats, dry pine-sappy leathery hay and dust finish, i love this wine will seek out more
September 12, 2009 - Very good showing last night. Deep purple color. On the nose, this starts off with black fruit, smoke and leather. Complex palate: black plum, black olives, licorice, leather, smoke and sea salt from La Camarque. Somehow I get a sense that Pradeaux displays it terroir better in 'lesser' vintages. Big, voluminous palate feel. Rustic wine for sure - will not please everybody, but if you want to taste what old fashioned Bandol taste like - this is it. Great match for Susanne's duck stew with rigatoni.
January 31, 2009 - Dark ruby color. Nose of briary fruits, plum, stones, some leather. Similar palate. Nice tannins and length. Very balanced.
