Domaine de Terrebrune gets its name from the brownish topsoil of limestone pebbles and brown clay, but the real magic is what is underneath. Blue limestone and marl give this wine a unique minerality that cannot be copied. 50% Mourvedre with equal parts Cinsault and Grenache rounding out the blend is aged 6-8 months in barrel before release. Drink one and hold on to five!

The perfect companion to a classic summer dish—Salade Niçoise. The Terrebrune Bandol Rosé is one of the more winsome, elegant rosés I've tasted this year. Primarly composed of Mourvèdre grown in blue Trias limestone soils, it is the minerality that really shines, along with breezy notes of alpine strawberries, raspberries, white peach and Rainier cherries. It is drier and more refined on the palate than the nose belies, with freshness, energy and acidic verve all dancing 'round a pronounced vein of chalk.

Cucumber skins and sweet basil... slippery. Gee whiz, I ♡ Mourvèdre rosay.

2014. More proof that good Bandol rosé needs a year or more to come into its own. This is just starting to come together

Perfect after a year. More savory notes, with all the fruit still hanging tough.

Funky almost was reduced. It was a strange wine to drink because it had nice acid but at the same time felt flabby. Maybe there was residual sugar in the wine.....overall not bad

Clean and refreshing. Just what you expect from a Bondol rose.
