Bandol Blanc 2024 - Domaine de Terrebrune
93/100 Parker
Drink Date: 2027 - 2037
"A blend of Clairette, Ugni Blanc, Bourboulenc, Rolle and Marsanne, the 2024 Bandol Blanc from Domaine de Terrebrune opens with a delicate, floral bouquet of spring flowers, jasmine, broom and citrus. Medium- to full-bodied, lively and precise, it’s pure and tensile, framed by bright acids and concluding with a saline finish that reflects its calcareous soils. This is a graceful, age-worthy white that should evolve beautifully over the next decade."
