Well made and balanced Mourvèdre Rhône style wine despite high ETOH level. Has long finish with a fruity light body and mouthfeel with a little astringency. Well done and assume will add weight and increase it’s nose with some aging.

2003 Domaine A.-F. Gros Richebourg

Beautiful, powerful and still very youthful. Took a while to open up as was cool and required decanting. Softened with air time and coming up in temperature. Notes of cherry, earth and soft tannins. Very long finish and aftertaste. Tartness at start faded as it opened revealing a structured wine that paired well with soft cheeses from Norway.

2007 Montevertine Le Pergole Torte Toscana IGT

Outstanding and mature with soft tannins, integrated, red fruit with pretty nose that was not alcoholic. Tasted with cheese and ham with roasted honey dipped walnuts in a very old, outstanding wine bar in Bergen, Norway. Lucky to get their last bottle!
