April 17, 2022 - Avant d'ouvrir cette bouteille, j'avais une crainte que l'alcool soit trop perceptible ce qui à mon avis, assez typique des vins du domaine de la Mordorée. Le nez est beau, majoritairement sur la fraise, c'est plutôt profond et un profil mure. En bouche, effectivement l'alcool est perceptible avec cet effet de chaleur en arrière plan mais c'est pas trop dérangeant. Un vin agréable au profil sudiste indéniable mais ce ne sera plus sur ma liste d'achat.

March 14, 2022 - Millennial drinkers notes nailed the description. Medium minus expressive nose. Classic Mourvèdre dark meat, dark fruit, some pepper from the Syrah Grenache to the nose. Body shows dark fruit with moderate resolved tannins. Medium minus finish. Well made and evolved well. But basically lacks any notable wow features so gets credit as well made but nothing to move it to the outstanding side.
