Tasting note: 'Exotic nose dominated by pomelos; then comes out broom, honeysuckle, wet roses and then develops the complexity of a potpourri of flower petals. The palate is marked by the delicate structure of its bitterness.
Its intensely fruity flavours are heightened by the menthol and liquorice notes.
This racy, expressive rosé will develop its full potential in harmony with fresh, exotic summer cuisine, and then find its place in its evolution on structured, complex dishes.'

"Demure but distinctive, with lovely range, this leads with white raspberry and cherry blossom notes, revealing hints of jasmine and mango through the creamy finish. Mourvèdre, Grenache and Cinsault. Drink now. 1,800 cases imported. -JM"
In 1963, Georges Delille bought what would become Domaine de Terrebrune, a property in Ollioules, just east of Bandol, framed by the Mediterranean and the mountain called Gros-Cerveau (Big Brain), dotted with olive groves and scenic views—an idyllic spot. Mass overhauling and reconstruction of vineyards followed the declaration of A.O.C. Bandol (1941);vignerons were eager to revive the noble Mourvèdre grape. Georges spent ten years just renovating the property, terracing hillsides and replanting vineyards following the advice of Lucien Peyraud. In 1980, his son Reynald joined him, and together they launched their first bottled vintage of Domaine de Terrebrune, which Reynald named in honor of the rich, brown soils they farm.
