Country: France / La Bégude
Variety: Provence red blend Provence
Winery: Domaine de la Bégude / Bandol
This is an impressively rich, still very young wine. Dominated by Bandol’s own Mourvèdre grape, it is dense and concentrated. Spice and dark red fruits are shot through with a wonderful herbal character that conjures the southern warmth. The wine is still just setting out and will not be ready to drink before 2019.
