  Simple grapefruit aromas, low acid and lacks refreshment factor now, with a bitter note sitting heavy and unbalanced on the midpalate. After one glass, couldn't be bothered with it anymore and poured the rest down the sink.
  
  (Professionally cellared since release).

  Mature but still fruit left. Complex but drinks well now and shows the storage potential for Tempier Rose.

  CDV
  Très interessant apres une petite aération de 30 minutes, qui lui ont permis de perdre son côté strict et compact, pour gagner en relief. Sa rondeur s'équilibrait avec sa finale saline et plus acidulée, sa richesse perdait en mollesse. Epices, figue, anis, des notes plus florales, il a séduit son monde pour un rosé de presque 10 ans.

  Steve makes Brisket; 9/9/2018-9/11/2018 (Steve and Jennie's): This was a real treat to try, as I've never had an older Tempier Bandol rose. The difference is evident. Some freshness has been lost, and there is a lot more depth. The fruit is rounder and richer. There is a touch of oxidation, but not much, and at this stage, it adds interest. The person who brought this wine believed that this was about as long as you want to keep this wine, and I could agree with that.
