2023 Bandol Cabassaou, Domaine Tempier

2023 Bandol Cabassaou, Domaine Tempier

The 2023 Cuvée Cabassaou is the most powerful and intense of the Domaine Tempier single-vineyard wines, offering an incredibly concentrated bouquet of dark fruits like blackcurrant and cherry, generous spices, and complex notes of garrigue, leather, and truffle. On the palate, this is a massive and majestic wine with a dense, opulent texture built around a formidable structure of powerful, tight, yet refined tannins. Coming from a small, sun-drenched parcel of very old Mourvèdre vines, it delivers an extraordinary depth that perfectly balances its immense power with underlying freshness. The finish is seemingly endless, revealing the full nobility of its terroir and confirming its status as a legendary wine built for the very long haul. This wine is the epitome of a cellar selection and demands significant patience. It is highly recommended to age it for at least a decade before approaching, as only long-term cellaring will allow its incredible tannic power to resolve and its full aromatic potential to be revealed.
