Highly unusual blend of 90% Mourvedre for a French wine, with the remainder of 10% Grenache. Pitch black to the edge. Surprisingly upfront and rounded instead of being gripingly tannic. Enters the mouth fruity, dry. and acidic. Took about 5 days after being opened for the tannic grip to fully reassert itself.

Agree with note by guribh- nice blend but flavors are fading, some dark fruits, graphite, faint hint of olive tapenade, medium finish - was better a couple uears ago, time to drink up for sure

Drying out... Still useful, but I'd drink up within the next year or two. Rather simple, but quite nice, all said and done.
