Tempier, Bandol Blanc 2022 – R 635
‘Primarily Clairette (60%) and Ugni Blanc (30%), with bits of Bourboulenc, Marsanne and Rolle, the 2021 Bandol Blanc was still in tank when I visited early last year. It presents a striking juxtaposition of ripe pears and honeyed richness with brighter notes of fresh lime juice on the nose and medium-bodied palate, finishing with a sense of plush richness balanced by mouthwatering citrus zest and brine. 2023 – 2028.’ – Joe Czerwinski, Wine Advocate, 92-94/100
Tempier, Bandol Rosé 2022 – R 550
‘A classic Bandol, the 2022 Bandol Rose reveals stunning aromas of grapefruit, spring flowers, guava, lemon and iodine. The wine on the palate is medium to full-bodied, combining a fleshy core of fruit and racy acids with impressive substance on the finish. It needs a couple of years in bottle, but you can already see the potential.’ – Yohan Castaing, Wine Advocate, 93/100
Tempier, Bandol Rouge Lulu & Lucien 2020 – R 745
‘Tasted from foudre, the 2020 Bandol Cuvee Classique had been blended the week before my visit. Already showing classic notes of tree bark and truffle layered against cherries and raspberries and a touch of olive, it looks relatively precocious. In the mouth, it's medium to full-bodied, concentrated and rich, with a long, plush finish. 2023-2035’ – Joe Czerwinski, Wine Advocate, 91-93/100
