Our secret santa gift from last year. Have been meaning to drink for awhile and keep not getting to it. Was served as a pre-dinner drink. I have a feeling this prob needed more time than we gave it. Was pouring for a large number of folks so each glass was fairly small and we didn't really get to see the evolution. It was fairly intense. Darker fruits. Also some more spice and woodsy notes. Tasty.

75% Mourvèdre, 15% Syrah, 10% Grenache this time around. Pnp. Great nose. Gorgeous Smooth and silky mouthfeel. Nice acidity. Fruit forward Wine. Ripe Blackberry upfront with hints of leather. Peppery finish. Different. Special Something that I can’t quite pinpoint. Very Enjoyable!

I love the fruit in this wine, but this isn't one for the cellar. It does not have the structure to improve, so enjoy what it does have to offer right now.

Nice nose, solid palate, bright fruit with heft.

Drank over several days. Opened up the longer it was open. Should have long life but drinking great with a good decant.
