Closed and complex still

One of the two second wines from this estate

It is an especially gracious translucent wine that stands apart stylistically from the typically richer wines that have been made here

2023 | La Bastide Blanche Bandol Rosé | Provence (1.5L) Monica di Sardegna blackcurrant and delicately woody notesThe 2023 Rose is deep, complex and layered, with ripe nectarine, rose garden and sweet cherry fruit notes. Beautifully expressive and floral on the nose, savory, salty mineral tones meet red berry freshness and an undercurrent of spice in the mouth. A touch of almond bitterness grabs at the edges of the tongue toward the close, striking great harmony with a rounded sweetness. Bravo.
