esbrown reviewed La Bastide Blanche Bandol Rosé 2003 on August 2, 2005

Is it truly a rosé with a rusty/salmon color that can only be described with the term Pelure d'Oignon (skin of the onion)? Spicy and spicier, with hints of pepper, fresh herbs de Provence, lavender, strawberry and cinnamon on both the nose and the palate. A deep vein of acidity buoys the full and silky mouthfeel. A nice rosé, with just enough fruit, texture and freshness.
