Domaine Bastide Blanche Bandol Rouge 2017

The Bandol Rouge is a blend of 72% Mourvèdre, 20% Grenache, 6% Cinsualt, 1% Syrah, 1% Carignan This is a hardy, yet polished wine with tar, plum, blackberry, licorice, and herbs. The palate follows with similar flavors of earthy garrigue, cassis and a slight bit of chewyness. More flavors of smoky black fruits, mulberry, plum, cedar box and the tell-tale peppery notes of Mourvedre.
