Domaine Tempier Cabassaou Bandol 2012

Dark and deep purple color. Nose of black berries, spices, herbs, it’s bright, deep and mysterious. Greatly structured on the palate, it is quite powerful at this stage. Flavors of spicy black berries with small berry jam and a mineral touch on the finish. This can’t hide the fact that it comes from a warm climate area, but that doesn’t lower its great ageing potential as this will be amazing after some years in the cellar. Very good+ (90

Blend of 95% Mourvèdre, 4% Syrah, 1% Cinsault. Aged in oak foudres for 18 to 20 months. Alcohol level of 14,5%

The 2014 vintage was sold recently and it was gone fast! (Code SAQ: 12612493)
