LA CADIÉRENNE |
Bright day-glo very light salmon pink colour. Very gently spicy, ripe plum-apple nose with some hints of mineral-tinged cantaloupe. Fairly dry, medium-light bodied, harmonious, ripe apple-melon-plum flavours with a crisp, unoaked finish. This blend of Mourvèdre, Grenache and Cinsault has 14% alcohol and 2 g/L residual sugar with lot number L17B6073 on the capsule. TONY ASPLER / 88-points / BEST BUY - Red plum on the nose with a light floral note; medium-bodied, dry, firmly structured, watermelon and red plum flavours ending on an engaging note of bitterness. |

TASTING NOTE: On March 3, 1929, the Cadiérenne cooperative was created by 37 winegrowers; today, La Cadiérenne is the largest producer of AP Bandol wines. A blend of Mourvèdre, Grenache and Cinsault, this wine offers ripe peach, pear, yellow apple and wild herbs with suggestions of exotic tropical fruit. It's bright, juicy, luxuriously smooth and round with a zesty edge to the finish. A beautiful wine. Pair with grilled seafood and summer salads. (Vintages panel, May 2017) |
