Description
A blend of 95% Mourvèdre and 5% Grenache, this is an outstanding wine from Bandol. Its late release has spared you the years of patience typically required for Mourvèdre to shed the austerity of its youth. The wine is now at a magnificent stage in its evolution. Soft, approachable, and beautifully integrated, yet retaining ample freshness and vitality.

This 2020 Bandol from Pradeaux is a wine of time and power. The dark color testifies to its concentration, and it yields a noble botanical register of bay leaf, thyme, and garrigue, the long aging in foudre adding blood-orange notes. The flesh is rich, dense, and full-bodied, with extreme power and concentration yet no hardness, and elegant notes of India ink and balm.
