Produced in the Bandol appellation of Provence, the wine is sourced from vines averaging approximately 20 years of age. The 2025 blend comprises 55% Mourvèdre, 25% Grenache and 20% Cinsault, with Mourvèdre forming the structural and stylistic foundation of the cuvée. The vineyards are planted on Bandol’s characteristic clay and limestone soils, which contribute mineral definition and a distinctive sense of place. Domaine Tempier’s vineyards are certified organic, reflecting the estate’s careful and attentive approach to farming. The wine combines the concentration expected from Bandol with a finely balanced, tannin-free structure and vibrant natural freshness. \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eVinification involves either brief skin-contact maceration or direct pressing, followed by low-temperature settling of the juice. Fermentation takes place in stainless-steel or concrete vats to retain fruit purity and aromatic clarity. The wine is subsequently matured in vat for six to eight months before bottling. The 2025 release displays citrus, rhubarb and peach alongside anise, wild thyme and a distinctly savoury Mediterranean character. Saline freshness and mineral tension provide definition through the palate, while the fruit remains rounded and expressive. Domaine Tempier advises that its Bandol Rosé can be cellared for one to five years and potentially much longer, developing nuances of candied citrus, melon and rose petal with age. The magnum format is particularly well suited to extended maturation while also offering an impressive option for celebrations and shared dining. \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eTasting Notes\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eNOSE\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003e– Vibrant and Mediterranean\u003cbr\u003eCitrus, rhubarb and peach with white flowers, anise and wild thyme.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003ePALATE\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003e– Tense and savoury\u003cbr\u003eOrchard fruit, grapefruit peel and apricot layered with mineral freshness and a rounded, finely structured texture.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eFINISH\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003e– Long and saline\u003cbr\u003ePersistent citrus, crushed mineral notes and savoury herbs with an energetic, refreshing close. \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eReviews \u0026amp; Accolades\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cem\u003e“Another success at this address, the 2025 Bandol Rosé is superb, revealing aromas of ripe orchard fruits, guava, red berries, flowers and confit citrus.”\u003c\/em\u003e — Yohan Castaing, Robert Parker Wine Advocate, 93+ Points, 11 June 2026.
