Simple and thin on opening, but balanced and pleasant. Vacuum sealed the last glass and got to it 5 days later. Expected disaster, but actually very nice. Ripe red fruit, good structure, went great with roast chicken.

Luscious, ripe Mourvedre, not encountered that often in this guise. This is a grape not always easy to ripen at 14.5 abv. With blackberry and savory aroma, it is a mouthful of fresh fruit and herb, with acidity and the variety's characteristic wild, tart, umami notes.
Delicious for current drinking.

Very little on the nose (perhaps its my nose!). Hints of strawberries and other red fruit on the palate, with some earthiness.

Nice nose. Tastes of blueberries & dark chocolate. Medium body with smooth consistent tastes throughout the bottle.
