Bandol Rose Terrebrune 2017 (1.5L)

93 Points, Yohan Castaing, Robert Parker's Wine Advocate: "The 2017 Bandol Rosé, sourced from vines planted on the limestone soils of Bandol, reveals aromas of red berries, spices, honey, peony, rose petals and guava. It’s perfectly balanced, racy, layered and taut, concluding with a long, saline finish. Terrebrune performed exceptionally well in this vintage, proving the quality of this Triassic soil. This blend consists of 60% Mourvèdre, with 20% each of Cinsault and Grenache." 12/23

92 Points, Josh Raynolds, Vinous: "Light, bright orange. Intense, mineral-laced citrus fruit, redcurrant and peach aromas, along with a sexy floral overtone. Juicy and penetrating on the palate, offering subtly sweet red berry and pit fruit flavors that tighten up and become more nervy on the back half. Smoothly blends power and finesse and finishes with outstanding clarity and mineral- and floral-driven persistence." 07/18
