Domaine Tempier Bandol Rosé
Full-bodied red🇫🇷 Bandol, Provence, France · Mourvèdre blend
Dry, mineral and sun-baked, with a savory grip that refuses to be sentimental. It suits the book's blank Mediterranean glare.
The Pour

Hugues Beaulieu Picpoul de Pinet
Wine🇫🇷 Languedoc, France · Picpoul
Saline, citrusy and taut, it tastes of sea spray and hot Mediterranean rock. A clean, unsentimental white for Meursault's blinding afternoon on the beach outside Algiers.
The Mood
A spare, sun-struck study of indifference in which a single act on an Algerian beach unravels a life. Cool on the surface, unnerving underneath.
