Tempier Bandol 'Lulu & Lucien' 2022

This Cuvee was previously called Classique but was renamed to celebrate Lulu’s 100th Birthday in 2017, when Lulu passed away in 2020 the wine was renamed to remember Lulu and her husband Lucien. 

 At Domaine Tempier grapes from different vineyards are skillfully blended to create this wine, made up of between 70 and 75% Mourvedre (depending on the year) combined with Grenache, Cinsault and a hint (2%) of old Carignan. Winery note. 

 Tempier says this is their signature Bandol; it’s a blend of dark fruit and vibrant stony minerality—a classic expression of what they do best.
