about this wine:

The grapes used for this rosé come from selected parcels where the vines are on average 20 years old. The yields are low, which explains the intense concentration and distinct expression of each varietal in this wine. The presence of Mourvedre gives this wine its strong character, balance and complexity.

 All grapes are harvested by hand


 3 techniques are used to make the rosé: direct press, short maceration, and saignée (5%)


 Wine ages in cuve for 6 to 8 months

Stephen Tanzer's IWC, June 2011

Bright, orange-tinged pink. Spicy, mineral-accented aromas of redcurrant, blood orange and white pepper, with a hint of lavender in the background. Focused and precise, with very good depth and vivacity to its bitter red fruit and citrus zest flavors. Gains sweetness with air and clings impressively on the finish, which leaves notes of anise and candied orange behind. Don't be in a rush to drink this, by the way. -Josh Raynolds

About Winery

Owned by the Tempier family since 1834, the Domaine won its first gold medal in 1885 due to the drive and hard work of Lucie's great grandmother, Leonie, who had the first winery built. Located in the heart of the Bandol appellation, Domaine Tempier's 38 hectares are spread over seeral parcels facing the sea on steep, sun-drenched slopes. It is one of the few mid-19th-century estates that has stayed true to its past.
