Domaine de La Bégude Bandol rouge 2020 0,75l

Domaine de La Bégude sits around 400 metres above sea level at the top of the Bandol appellation, overlooking the Bay of La Ciotat. Certified organic vineyards. The bouquet offers dark cherry, blackberry and red berry fruit wrapped in notes of pepper, liquorice, dried herbs and earthy spice. On the palate the wine is powerful and compact yet precise, with firm, ripe tannins and a refreshing, salty streak of minerality. Extended maceration and traditional ageing bring depth, savoury complexity and a long, slightly smoky finish. A distinctive, ageworthy Bandol red that pairs beautifully with roast lamb, slow-braised beef, game dishes and richly seasoned Mediterranean vegetables.

Eighteen months in large oak foudres give the Bandol depth, spice and a powerful, polished structure.
