Hello,
We made a very nice dinner at the TGJP in Paris last friday with 6 Bandol 2001 (Tempier, Pibarnon, Gros Noré, La Sufrene, Terrebrune & Tour de Bon) & 2 whites Loire (Richard Leroy & Tour Grise). see

Ask any questions on the forum and I will try to answer.
Best regards

So overall, you were disappointed? Don't you think Bandol generally needs a couple of decades to show its stuff? My 1998 Bandol is still tight.
There's been discussion on the board that Pibarnon is now more modern styled. What is your feeling about that?

That's what I wrote (the question). Bandol seems to need one more decade. About Pibarnon, it's the only one-vintage-estate I know (1990). Since 1998, it's closer in style of a south-Bordeaux.
