2015 Château de Pibarnon Bandol Nuances Rosé, Provence

The Rosé Nuances was born out of continuous tastings of Pibarnon's young and old vintage Rosés. As 100% Mourvèdre, this wine has the great ability of taking longer to open up, to then last for a long time. 

What strikes first in this wines is the complexity and aromatic purity. Nothing flashy, but finesse. Brambles, stone fruits, red fruits, some spices. Licorice is faint, but appears from time to time. On the palate, this Rosé Nuances develops a long structure, sappy, full-bodied and salty. The finish is astonishing and refreshing. It draws us to the texture of white meat, slightly coloured with sweet spices. It is also a Mediterranean anthem as it is made to be drunk with red mullet, saffron, rock lobster... A great rosé for mealtimes, to be kept in stock. A meditative Rosé.
