A big wine, 15% abv, balanced, good fruit, a bit of funk, a crowd fav, $78 on restaurant wine list, mouvedre rocks, drank with a variety of meat- lamb, duck, beef, pasta, and pork, would drink again.

Nice compacted red and dark plummy fruit with a hint of earthy smokey leafy lift, moreish palate of high acidity, grainy grippy tannins and tobacco ash. Very nice

Lovely dark fruit, the full-on tobacco leaf on the palate, juiciness, plenty of tannin. Great

Lots of sulfites. Smelled like rotten eggs and didn’t fully blow off, even the next day. Couldn’t appreciate what was behind it.

Robust full bodied, dry earthy finish. Lasts a long time in the mouth. I savored each final drop. Lush, very little, if any, acidity. Wow!
