WINE DESCRIPTION

Domaine Tempier Bandol Rosé is a highly sought-after rose wine produced by Domaine Tempier. Tempier is an iconic, family-owned operation located in the prestigious southern French appellation of Bandol, which is noted for its rose-style wines. Made from primarily Mourvedre grapes supported by Grenache and Cinsault grown in vineyards grown according to organic and biodynamic principles. The vineyards are situated on steep hillsides with a mix of clay and limestone soils, which help retain the acidity needed to balance the win's concentration. The winemaking process involves direct pressing resulting in a delicate and elegant wine with a pale pink color. The wine is known for its complex aromas of red fruits, citrus, and floral notes, with a refreshing acidity and a long finish. Domaine Tempier Bandol Rosé is a perfect wine for any occasion, and it pairs well with a variety of dishes, including seafood, salads, and grilled chicken.

ORIGINS

Winery: Domaine Tempier

Region: Provence

Nestled in the south of France, Provence is a Mediterranean paradise for wine lovers. With its stunning landscapes, mild climate, and rich history, Provence as a wine region is more than just the home to refreshing holiday rosé wines. The history of winemaking in Provence dates back to the ancient Greeks, who first planted vines in the region in 600 BC. Since then, the region has become renowned for its unique terroir and its production of high-quality wines. In the 19th century, the region experienced a period of decline due to the phylloxera epidemic, but it has since recovered and is now one of the most important wine regions in France.
