2023 Domaine Tempier Bandol

Color: I usually don’t care much about this, never truly learned the names of all the shades, but as a layman, this looks like liquid copper in the glass in the right light.

Nose: apricot, watermelon, toasted sugar, pleasant booziness, seems like it’s gonna be overly sweet judging by the nose

Palate: oh wow- flower bed, light touch of caramel, great grapefruit-like acidity, perfume

Finish: that toasted sugar/light caramel returns, decent burn that’s not unpleasant, faint perfume at the very end

    Beautiful all around! 

    I had this a couple of months ago and thought it was still extraordinarily young. If you have a few more, it’s the rare rose that can truly benefit from time in the bottle.
