Domaine de Terrebrune - Bandol - Blanc - 2021

Wine:

A Selection Committee Favorite! Rated 95/100, the 2021 White Bandol is made out of a majority of clairette grape variety, associated with ugni blanc, bourboulenc, marsanne and rolle. The result is a wine of great purity, with a slightly flinty side to it that reminds us of its limestone terroir. The palate is impeccable in style, fresh and complex, with notes of stone fruits, a floral touch and a beautiful saline and iodine finish.  A very fine example of a great white Bandol, to pair with grilled or roasted fish or seafood. It will easily keep for ten years or more in the cellar!
