"Domaine Tempier is located in Provence in the Bandol appellation. The estate was created in 1830 but fully revealed itself under the influence of Léonie Tempier in 1885 when she won a Gold medal for her wine red made from Mourvèdre.
  
In 1941, Bandol became an Appellation d'Origine Contrôlée, one of the regulations of which is to produce wines with a minimum of 50% Mourvèdre, and aging for 18 months in barrels for red wines. Today, Domaine Tempier cultivates vines using sustainable agriculture in three communes and produces four wines.
  
 This single-plot cuvée comes from a high altitude terroir on the Beausset-Vieux massif, geologically complex, but also wild. A fine selection allows these specificities to be best expressed. All this gives an intense wine which François Peyraud, son of Lulu and Lucien, says “makes a ball”, because it coats the mouth so much before settling on the freshness.
  
 Vinification : Grapes sorted at the plot and in the cellar; destemmed, crushed and put in the cellar for a period of 3 to 4 weeks of fermentation using native yeasts.
  
 Aging : In barrels for a minimum of 18 months before bottling.
  
 Lots of charm for this complex and distinctive wine, with a wild and fresh character. Its balance makes it a great wine to keep."
