Popped and poured at La Buvette. Dark garnet with an opaque core. No visual signs of age. Consumed over three hours. Initially reticent but after about 30min, it started to show off. On the nose, dark cherries and cocoa. On the palate, dark chocolate cherry cordial, espresso and baking spices. Tannins built up over time and there’s fantastic acidity. Lovely stuff and seems built for the long haul. A super Bandol on the heels of Tempier and Pradeaux.

Nice decent wine. Provence garrique. Nice flavours. Drink now since it won’t get better.

Nice flavours. Could have been a developed C9dP. Nice drinking now since it is fully mature.

Will last at good while longer. Excellent Bandol however, well priced.

Nice wine. Almonds flavours, blue berries, soft tannins. Surprising.
