Tempier Bandol Rouge La Tourtine 2020 Bottle size: 750ml
France, Bandol
R1,150
‘Mainly Mourvèdre (85%), with Cinsault and Grenache, the 2020 Bandol la Tourtine was still in foudre at the time of my visit last year. Scents of cola, smoke and red berries provide ample complexity on the nose, while the medium to full-bodied palate is concentrated and almost creamy in texture while remaining fresh and dynamic on the lengthy finish. 2023 – 2040.’ – Joe Czerwinski, Wine Advocate, 94-96/100
