Chateau de Pibarnon Bandol ROSE Organic 2021 750ml

Pibarnon crafts the finest Mourvèdre-based wines in the world. A blend of older-vine Mourvèdre and Cinsault. Winemaker Eric de Saint-Victor presses his Cinsault directly; Mourvèdre is macerated and free-run juice is drawn off. Unique in its category, Pibarnon Rosé can age impressively and is at its peak within two-three years. 
Blend: 65% Mourvèdre, 35% Cinsault

Wine Spectator 92 points A gorgeous, complex rosé, rippling with flavors of cherry, blood orange, spice, potpourri and currant. Ripe, densely packed and creamy, this stays elegant, with impressive harmony and a lovely salted almond note on the long finish. Mourvèdre and Cinsault. Wine Advocate 92 points Pibarnon's 2021 Bandol Rosé is a slightly coppery, medium-pink blend of 65% Mourvèdre and 35% Cinsault. A juicy, fresh and easy-drinking rosé, this medium-bodied effort delivers ample cherry, melon and lime flavors.  Drinking 2022 - 2023  —  Joe CzerwinskiVinous 92 points Light, vivid orange. Mineral-accented citrus pith, red berry and succulent floral and herb scents, along with a spicy topnote. Chewy and sharply focused in the mouth, offering well-concentrated strawberry, bitter cherry, blood orange, honeysuckle and smoky mineral qualities and a deeper suggestion of nectarine. Densely packed, with the mineral and floral notes carrying through a long, precise finish.
