  Still holding it together. Stored perfectly since purchased. Obvious Mouvèdre fruit still there. Way past its prime. Almost no sediment. Drink up.

  Very good indeed. Fully ready. Tannins quite dry but plenty of black fruit to balance.

  I think this wine ticks all the boxes. It is unusual, delicious and at its peak. Far from great but a really pleasant interesting glass

  I really like this wine. It has that slightly cooked element from the heat in Bandol but the Mourvedre copes with is so well. Lovely balance. Drinkable after popping the cork. Delicious
