Domaine Tempier 2020 Bandol Cabassaou 750ml

“95% Mourvèdre, 4% Syrah and 1% Cinsault from 50 year old vines.  Deep garnet in colour with bright red reflections.  A power, rich nose that exudes a very strong character of black fruit, pepper, violets, leather and black olives.  A forceful presence in the mouth with lots of depth and concentration but surprisingly fine tannins.  The aromatic intensity is matched on the palate with exuberant black fruits and a spicy, floral finish.  This young wine has amazing aging potential.”
