Domaine Tempier Cuvee Classique 2020 750ml
From 40+-year-old, biodynamically farmed grapes, the Cuvée ferments on native yeast for two to three weeks in stainless steel before moving to 2000 and 5000 litre oak foudres for malolactic conversion, then rests in the foudres for 18 to 20 months.
75% Mourvèdre, 14% Grenache, 9% Cinsault, 2% Carignan
93 Points - Robert Parker's Wine Advocate
Marked by scents of clove, allspice, cola and plum, the medium to full-bodied 2019 Bandol Cuvee Classique is concentrated, dense and creamy in texture, with an appealing suppleness that would make it almost drinkable already—except for the drying, dusty finish.
