I must confess that I still have a soft spot for Pradeaux's rosé, and the 2024 Bandol Rose is no exception. Unfurling in the glass with notes of red berries, spices, spring flowers and apricots, it's medium- to full-bodied, complex and elegant in profile, with a juicy, fresh core of fruit and moderate tannins that culminate in a mineral, gently minty and ethereal finish. This is a beautifully crafted rosé that continues to uphold Pradeaux’s distinctive and timeless charm. - Yohan Castaing
