Ruby red. Aromatic nose of ripe black fruiys, leather, earth. Velvety tanins, medium- acidity. Wine is dense, concentrated. Drinking like blackcurrant juice. Wine has some sweetness. Long finish. Impresive mourvedre. Drink it now, because with low acidity and diminishing tanins it will taste sweeter year after year.

This was delicious. Not as earthy as some Mourvedre wines, had a nice freshness, long finish, good complexity. Really impressive and better than I anticipated.

This bottle was much more accessible as what I would expect from Mourvedre than the last bottle which had quite a bit of brett. Still big with blackberry and bramble, but air let it show more nuance and the finish was clean so it didn't feel new world in any way.

Very tasty and moderately rustic but didn't seem to have the stuffing to justify the price. I may have opened this too soon.
