  December 16, 2023 - Shared at a dinner party. Young now & will certainly get better w/time in the cellar.

  October 10, 2023 - Another bottle from the same auction lot and the bad storage conditions are evident in the vinegar component. Undrinkable. Torn label as well.

  July 31, 2023 - PnP. Nose of blackberry, blueberry, prosciutto, and purple floral notes. Lovely blackberry fruit coats the mouth, adds unripe blue and fruit with acidity, a little pepperiness and a lot of wet stones. Herbal notes start the finish, adding round tannins, rustic red fruits, and notes of tea. Didn't look up last month's notes and I had more blue fruits in this tasting but they're accurate that this can improve. 92+ points.

  June 22, 2023 - I do not drink a lot of Mourvedre. So rating this more on the "enjoyablitiy factor" than anything else.

  June 6, 2023 - Herbal black cherry nose with campfire smoke and light floral notes. Blackberry pushes forward with a rush over the tongue, then graphite, dried red berry, and fresh sage takes over. Chewy tannins still have some room to develop with black fruits, bitter herbs, and black tea backing them up. Good now, with some room to improve. 92+ points.
