similar to my note in 2010 although not much funk. Initial tannins that softened with air and then a sort of velvet dust to the wine...very pretty and perfect on a winter night

Initially funky and probably the usual sort of stuff for bandol but this blew off with time and became a perfect sort of deep winter wine with hearty food. Tannins are nicely resolved and this wine is ready to go...but probably got going anywhere soon......classic old world and very nice.

Medium red color. An inviting nose of strawberry, black cherry, leather, and garrigue. The palate shows moderate fine grained tannins that are staring to integrate, medium acidity and a pleasant finish. This is a delicious bottle of wine. It has the structure and fruit to age and improve for several more years.

Fairly classic Bandol but I wanted more depth.
