The sun gods came to the rescue of this vintage, putting any doubts about 2014 to rest. The inversion of summer and autumn weather trends in 2014 had never been seen to such an extent in the history of Bordeaux. The year was marked by early flowering and grapes that were very slow to ripen. Cool summer temperatures, though, have delivered a full spectrum of aromas and the outstanding quality of the grapes at harvest has resulted in a magnificent vintage ... that is now ready to drink! Béatrice recommends enjoying it with some oysters, roasted sea bass or goat's cheese.

This new 2016 vintage is utterly elegant with its rose petal colour and hints of salmon pink. On the nose, you will find candied citrus fruits and spices, while the palate is especially fruity. Its flavors of peach and raspberry come with a good dose of freshness and beautiful aromatic persistence. This Bandol will be perfect served at 11°C with a red mullet tart and ratatouille or with succulent grilled meats. If serving with appetizers, black olive tapenade will make an excellent match.
