September 5, 2019 - I enjoy this wine about five to seven years old. This vintage they let it get a bit too ripe for my taste, but it still has nice Mourvèdre flavors and nuances. Always a great Wine for the price.

April 28, 2018 - A very heavy bouquet - earth.
Also heavy taste - long aftertaste. Too heavy for many I think - but a good example of a pure Mourvedre. Buy it just for that.
Drink it at 16-18 degrees - not warmer. -

I am not good at this yet. -

February 14, 2017 - Drinking nicely; carries the 15% alcohol very well. Balanced tannins, plush body, long finish.
Spicy brambly blueberry fruit flavors. Nicely done.1 person found this helpful Comment -

July 17, 2016 - Blueberry, coffee and mocha notes up front. Very smooth and creamy texture with black raspberry, coffee and hints of chocolate carrying over midpalate to a lightly tannic, tart cherry and milk chocolate finish. Excellent.
