  Day after notes: Cherry flavor is memorable. Complex, with a mineral element. Very nice.

  An excellent, almost prototypical, expression of Mourvedre. This is a big, muscular wine with black fruits in abundance and a very distinct smokiness and tar component. Spicy with fresh white pepper and a whole bunch of garrigue notes. Full bodied, with firm but ripe tannins, and good acidity, this wine will continue to age for another decade.

  Very fleshy with a ripe fruit profile and not the meatiness you expect from Mourvèdre but it is really delicious. Dark fruited with a hint of thyme and star anise. Medium-plus acidity.

  A modernly styled (overtly fruity), judiciously oaked, well made Mourvedre. No one would ever confuse it for Bandol, but there is substance to it. It lacked the range of other wines in the flight.
