    La Bastide Blanche Bandol (Rosé) 2025 - Highly RecommendedTasted by Elizabeth Gabay MW & Ben Bernheim

    Bright copper pink. Somewhat restrained on the nose with hints of floral red fruit, exploding on the palate with beautifully textured acidity. Lightly sandy, driven and incredibly powerful. A hint of white pepper, some spice and the tiniest hint of tight, dry tannins. The beautifully lasting, saline finish finally yields a touch of red fruit: wild strawberries and a hint of quince. Charming, classy and remarkably refined.
