Displaying mineral-driven raspberry, blood orange, nectarine character, 2017 La Bastide’s Blanche Bandol Rosé shows outstanding clarity and cut on a finish that lingers with strong, floral-tinged persistence. This is a classic rendition from France’s Bandol region. (Josh Raynolds, Vinous, August 2018)

Black fruit, earth, dirt, spice. Nice QPR for a somewhat pricey appellation. Mourvèdre Grenache cinsault

Peach and strawberry with classic bandol herbaceousness. A nice bandol rose, but a touch of bitterness on the finish leaves this at a level below my usuals..

Pretty complex for a rosé with strawberries, grapefruit, hints of anise. Lovely wine!

Like the first taste but bitterness kind of linger. Too bad ... but still a good rose maybe better with some cheese
