Tonight was 2006 Domaine Tempier Bandol - just the regular bottling - paired with filet mignon
The Tempier was great - full of ripe plum and an almost kirsch-like nose. A nice spicy-ness too which went well with the meal. I've got some bottles of their Migoua and La Tourtine which I'll be eager to compare with.
i found the les Pallieres at the store right next to me, actually, and I've been meaning to give it a try. Will report back when I do.
indeed. the non-CdR, Cote-Rotie, Hermitage, and CdPape rhone reds are pretty unexplored for me. I still love Cote-Rotie and Hermitage, but last half dozen or so CdPapes I've tasted have all been disappointing and overdone. Most were 2007's, I don't recall them being as ripe in the past.
