Mourvedre
Ridge Vineyards
Geyserville Sonoma County Zinfandel Blend 2017
One of the best zinfindel’s, dry, full bodied and a great nose, thoroughly enjoyed the complex notes in this one. 2017 is a good year right now. Aged nicely, but would love to have a few more to see how well they do in the next year or so — 15 days ago

Domaine Tempier
Bandol Mourvedre Blend 2015
2015 drunk mid-2025. Lacking a bit of brightness, but silky soft tannin with no unpleasantness. Probably no need to let this sit any longer. — 24 days ago

Domaine du Gros' Noré
Bandol Mourvedre Blend Rosé 2024
Bandol roses are just tops always. The nose is like candied sour watermelon and yellow citrus rind, with a notable acidity that makes you grit your teeth a bit, but in a pleasant way. The color is a pale peach blush, with orange hues, over a medium body. Drank with a chill, there’s undeniable strawberry, peach, a little mandarin orange (but just the zest), artificial watermelon sour, cantaloupe, with a sharp acidity and a looooong finish reflective of the bigger body, with maybe a little bit of brandy or cognac at the end, like a little caramel or butterscotch? — 12 days ago
Sipping Fine Wine
Blend of 80% Mourvèdre, 15% Grenache and 5% Cinsault, deep Ruby red color with aromas of ripe dark fruits, dried herbs and earthy spice. On the palate flavors of blackberry, ripe black cherry and currants with black pepper, cacao and earth notes, vivid acidity nice structure. Fine tannins, long finish ending with fruit and herb spice character. Good now. Will age! — 20 hours ago
