Expert's View
“Bandol Rouge, well you’ve got warm years that you can approach earlier for example ’07, ’09, ’11 and you’ve got cooler years which are more structured like ’08, ’10, and ’12 and relatively hands off and need five to ten years in bottle. If one wanted to put away a red wine to age and be massively blown away five to ten years down the line when you start opening bottles, Ray-Jane Bandol is one of the great wines of France to cellar. Then you can buy a warm vintage and you can just get stuck into it straight away because it’s lovely and open.” ~ Clear Wine Co's Wine Expert
