At Domaine Tempier grapes from our different vineyards are skillfully blended to create this wine made up of between 70 and 75% Mourvedre (depending on the year) combined with Grenache Cinsault and a hint (2%) of old Carignan. This fruity well balanced wine can be enjoyed after 3 or 4 years but develops extremely pleasant tertiary aromas (leather animal and undergrowth) with further ageing. The wine’s balance gives it an ageing potential of 15 years or more.

The Cuvée Classique blend combines grapes from the estate’s different terroirs. In the area known as ‘Le Petit Moulin de la Cadière’ named after its windmill the vines grow on south-facing terraces stretching out over hilly terrain.

Aromas of dark fruit. Intense smooth tannins. After 5 or 6 years of aging the wine will develop notes of leather forest-floor and small red fruit."
