Chateau Pradeaux 2024 Bandol Rosé Vesprée (arrives 5/19)

(Arrives 5/19) "'Vesprée' represents a tiny portion of Pradeaux’s production, selected at harvest for its quality, and vinified and aged in cement egg. Comprising 80% Mourvèdre and 20% Cinsault, “Vesprée” is a wine full of energy, sapid and complex, with deep color and a marked sense of herb-tinged earth on its densely concentrated frame. Aged six months longer on its lees before bottling, “Vesprée” is always released one year later than the flagship Bandol Rosé, and it will age effortlessly for years to come." - Clark Boehling
