Description

93 points La Revue du Vin de France
The 2018 vintage, which survived the deluge, announces very elegant reds, without excess power. They will evolve in finesse but are already proving to be very indulgent without lacking in depth. Behind a fine reduction and beautiful aromas of raspberry, the "classic" Bandol 2018 develops with an astonishing smoothness of structure. An elegance that already makes it accessible. (2021)
91 points James Suckling
Aromas of dark fruit with plums, blackberries and some iron and black cherries. Bark, too. Full to medium body with concrete undertones to the dark fruit. Delicate center palate, but finishes creamy and flavorful with light chewiness and dusty texture. Drink now. (5/30/21)
