Located in the heart of the Bandol appellation on sun-drenched slopes bordering the Mediterranean Sea, Domaine Tempier is today considered the best area of this PDO. Domaine Tempier is an exceptional producer of this appellation.
The 2018 rosé comes from a selection of plots of vines with an average age of 20 years offering small yields, hence the concentration and expression of each grape variety, which are revealed in this wine with great intensity. The presence of mourvèdre gives it a lot of character, balance and complexity on the guard. This rosé attracts by its power on the nose with a scent of fruits and flowers. Its full, round mouth with fruit aromas (peach, pomegranate, etc.) with a slight hue of spice reveals a nice freshness by its acid balance. The harvest is done by hand. As for the ripening of the grapes, we are looking for a little freshness, acidity and a lesser degree than for the reds. They are spread over four weeks and start from the last week of August. Harvested in 30 kg cases - whole bunches - sorting is carried out in the vineyard and the winery. After total destemming, the juices come from direct pressing and cold skin maceration so as to extract fruit aromas and obtain a pale color. We do very little bleeding. Then we proceed to a classic white wine type vinification with temperature control. The rosés are kept for 8 months in concrete tanks before bottling.
