Tempier's Bandol rosé is the one rosé lovers chase every summer, and this 2024 comes in a 3-litre bottle built for a long table and a big crowd. Domaine Tempier is the property that made Bandol Bandol. Lucien Peyraud married Lulu Tempier in 1936 and helped the region win its own AOC by 1941. He also proved that Bandol's old Mourvèdre, which growers were replanting to higher-yielding grapes, resisted oxidation and aged well. Fittingly, the first wine he ever bottled, in October 1943, was a rosé. The 2024 blends Mourvèdre, Grenache and Cinsault from the estate's certified-organic limestone-clay vineyards near the Mediterranean. This is a serious rosé, and the family means it: they say it keeps one to five years and can go much longer, moving toward candied citrus, melon and rose petal. Tempier was among the first estates Kermit Lynch imported, and our allocation sells out quickly almost every year. A bottle this size, poured at a Provençal lunch like the ones Lulu became famous for, is the most generous way to drink it.

"The 2024 Bandol Rosé from Domaine Tempier is utter class. Flaunting its trademark perfume of grapefruit peel, savory herbs, white flowers and sea spray, the Tempier Rosé shines in a league of its own. The mineral intensity and concentration through the mid-palate is really on another level in 2024. Supreme balance and textural finesse are the orders of the day. This is wine I consider a must-buy every year, but the 2024 is easily the best edition of Tempier Rosé in recent memory. Best of all, it will easily age for years." —Billy Norris

"The 2024 Bandol Rose from Domaine Tempier reveals an elegant, lively bouquet of pomegranate, grapefruit, ripe orchard fruits and guava subtly accented by delicate spicy notes. On the palate, it's bright and medium- to full-bodied, with bright acids and a juicy core of fruit that culminates in a saline, ethereal finish. As always, this is one of France's most meticulously crafted and benchmark rosés, combining precision, charm and age-worthy depth." —Yohan Castaing

"Concentrated and beautifully sculpted, with peach, persimmon and light red berry notes sharing the stage with sea salt, flint and fresh herbs. Shows density as details emerge on the creamy palate, revved up with citrusy acidity. Mourvèdre, Grenache and Cinsault."

More about Tempier

If there is one name that looms large in Bandol it is Lucie “Lulu” Peyraud. Lulu is the matriarch of Domaine Tempier and in many ways the entirety of Bandol as we know it. It was her, along with her now-deceased husband Lucien, who tirelessly worked to to grow the notoriety of their special Provençal wines.
Lulu, of course, is as much of a product of the Provençal landscape as the lavender and aromatic scrub that sprouts from it. Her whole life she used the ingredients that grew around her to make feasts of authentic home cooking to welcome visitors to the Domaine, including Alice Waters of famed Chez Panisse.

This is just one of the innumerable ways Lulu changed the food and wine world we know. Acclaimed food writer Richard Olney dedicated an entire book to her in 1994 entitled "Lulu's Provencal Table: The Exuberant Food and Wine from the Domaine Tempier Vineyard." Kermit Lynch, one of America’s most influential wine importers, considers Domaine Tempier a cornerstone of their portfolio and credits his strong friendship with Lulu as a bond that has fortified their success. Through her hospitality, passion, curiosity and genuine kindness she attracted culinary titans like moths to a flame and forever changed them.

Of course, it helps when the wine that flows from Lulu’s domaine is exceptional.

Flatiron's Take

From the Importer

Tasting Notes & Food Pairings

Perfect Pairings

Panisses, cured anchovy toasts, saucisson, bouillabaisse, grand aïoli with poached cod and vegetables, grilled sardines, salade niçoise.

Tasting Profile

Expect the classic Bandol rosé profile: red currant, wild strawberry, peach and white flowers, edged with garrigue herbs and a salty, stony note. Mourvèdre typically gives it more weight and grip than the usual Provence rosé, balanced by fresh acidity, and it finishes dry, savoury and long.
