Domaine Le Galantin Bandol Rose

55% Mourvedre, with the rest equally divided between Cinsault and Grenache. The grapes are hand-harvested, after which the bunches are cooled down for a two day cold soak in order to extract fruit, color and aromatics. The juice is then racked off and the grapes are pressed to stainless steel tanks. 10% of the wine is saignée, the rest come from grapes treated as for making white wine. Following a cool fermentation during which the malolactic is blocked, the wine is fined and bottled. By law, Bandol rose cannot be sold before March 1st. 

Classic Provençal rose with delightful fresh berry fruit flavors and a crisp finish. Mineral and complex nose of red fruit and citrus.
