The vineyards are characterized by clay and limestone soils, providing optimal conditions for cultivating Mourvèdre, the dominant grape in this blend. The 2020 vintage comprises 75% Mourvèdre, 14% Grenache, 9% Cinsault, and 2% Carignan. The vines average over 40 years of age, contributing to the wine's complexity. Following traditional winemaking practices, the grapes are hand-harvested and fermented with indigenous yeasts. The wine undergoes aging in large oak foudres (25 to 50 hectoliters) for 18 to 20 months, allowing for the integration of flavors and the development of its distinctive character. This cuvée was renamed \"Lulu \u0026amp; Lucien\" in 2020 to honor the estate's founders, Lucie \"Lulu\" and Lucien Peyraud.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Domaine Tempier","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":49585981685976,"sku":"TEMPIER-BANDOLROUGE","price":50.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0019\/3363\/9735\/files\/domaine-tempier-bandol-rouge-lulu-lucien-classic-wine-deslop.png?v=1784586265"},{"product_id":"domaine-tempier-bandol-rose-natural-wine","title":"Domaine Tempier Bandol Rosé 2024","description":"\u003cp\u003eDomaine Tempier's 2024 Bandol Rosé continues the estate's legacy of crafting France's most distinguished rosé from vineyards planted on clay-limestone and marly-sand soils across varied expositions.
