2023 La Bastide Blanche Bandol RoséMourvèdre Blend, Mourvèdre more |
5/24/2024 - Vinnut Likes this wine: 91 pointsPink salmon in color. Full, forward & attractive nose of ripe fruit aromas of strawberries, stone fruits, & watermelon notes with overtones of floral notes & minerals, orange rind & a hint of spices in the background. Light bodied with a good concentration of well balanced & smooth textured, zesty, ripe fruit flavors of fresh strawberries, cranberries & citrus notes with spices & minerals. Lingering dry finish. Drinks quite well at present although it might improve with an additional year or two of aging. An indicative blend of Cinsault, Grenache & Mourvedre. A wonderful Rose which will hold up to summer fare. |

5/11/2024 - West Coast Wine Likes this wine: 93 pointsUnderrated wine especially the price. Had this with a 2003’Grange and held its own. Mourvedre front and center and great body, fruit and plenty of years left. |

4/6/2024 - BLSausTX wrote: 91 pointsWas delicious with grilled lamb chops tonight! Palate was a bit wound up at open - acid and tannins stood out. With some time in the air, the wine opened up nicely - fruit stepped up to balance other elements. Didn't feel like this basic cuvee has the structure to continue to age beyond the next 2 years. Have two of their 2011 vineyard cuvees in the cellar - hoping they have a bit more staying power. |

2/7/2024 - Neurowine1 wrote: NRFinal btl of this on a cold rainy night. It's alright. Still a bit disjointed. This one starts with a slug of cherry jam but then quickly comes a bitterness and rusticity, olives, prunes, and a then dollop of EtOH heat. A bit dried out. Should be drunk up. It is recognizable as a Bandol, although a far cry from Dm Tempier. |

1/6/2024 - Karl Rossmann Likes this wine: 86 pointsFull bodied wine with dark fruit, licorice, pencil lead in the long finish. Tannins have softened over the years. Yet still a bit wild considering slightly harsch alcohol and actually a tiny, tiny bubbly mouthfeel. |

12/27/2023 - cincybt Likes this wine: 90 pointsA nostalgic choice for me, but La Bastide has a unique taste profile that I enjoy day 1, and finds a higher gear day 2. Like many Bandols, pairs with way more than you think. |

2019 La Bastide Blanche BandolMourvèdre Blend, Mourvèdre more |
12/3/2023 - Andrewbdc wrote: 88 pointsThere is a lot going on here. It’s a big wine - alcohol at 14.5%, high tannins that are still quite evident although quite ripe, and pronounced fruit and oak - plum, blackberry, dark cherry, chocolate, vanilla, smoke, earth. There is also a hint of brettanomyces - whether you like this or not probably depends on how much you see this as a fault or adding complexity (I’m in the latter camp). As usual for a wine dominated by mouverdre, the acidity is not high, but this has the structure to age and soften - it needs time. |

9/2/2023 - NiklasW Likes this wine: 90 pointsDecanted for an hour. Dark fruit, nice and refined, has calmed down in the past three years, still strong tannins. Nose shows blackberries and plum, palate has dark fruit with a touch of bitter chocolate. Delicious with grilled meats and vegetables! |

8/30/2023 - cfk49 wrote: 92 pointsPerhaps in a slightly shut-down phase at first compared to earlier bottles I've had, but still an attractive wine. Good Mourvèdre dark, earthy, animal fruit, somewhat tannic at first still, but on the whole quite drinkable, especially with food. With further airing, the wine opens and is wonderfully light on the palate with dark Mourvèdre fruits and a sensuous texture. Purchased at the estate in 2018 or 2019. |

8/6/2023 - Vinus Silvestris Likes this wine: 90 pointsDecanted in wide decanter and then returned into bottle, and sat there for 3 hours at 15 Celcius. Lovely at this price range 18 USD. Needs the mentioned air. Spicy aromatic and fruity, with tannins that really wants to see grilled beef, and loves that beef. |
