Reviews of 2005 Domaine Tempier Bandol la Tourtine Proprietary Blend
93 points, Robert Parker, Wine Advocate
June 2007
Although the Migoua commands a higher price, in my opinion it is the Tourtine that represents Tempier’s best cuvee. A wonderful, ebullient nose of blackberry, cherry, hedgerow and an almost savoury character. The palate has sublime balance and greater minerality than other cuvees; vigorous, utterly harmonious with a well-defined, wonderful poised finish. Outstanding. Anticipated maturity: 2012-2025
About 2005 Domaine Tempier Bandol la Tourtine Proprietary Blend
About the Winery Domaine Tempier
Domaine Tempier is located at Le Plan du Castellet. Its vineyards
stretch over three different communities- Le Castellet, Le Beausset and
La Cadière. Domaine Tempier owns 30 hectares. It produces AOC Bandol
exclusively - an average of 68% red, 29% rosé and 3% white wines,
approximately 120,000 bottles per year. In the wine cellar, modern
techniques are used - a pneumatic press, stainless vats and cold
processing unit - but the wine is raised in traditional wooden vats (10
to 50 hl).
About the Wine
It contains 70-80% of the Mourvèdre grape depending on the year. La Tourtine
site is often swept by the Mistral wind and is particularly well exposed to the
sun. Thus it produces a great wine that ages well even after 10 or 15
years and keeps its red berry and spice aromas.
