Pretty color of peach.

Fresh nose of red fruits with citrus and herbs.

Medium bodied with medium acidity and nice complexity.

Dry on the palate with raspberries, strawberries, citrus, apples, sea salt, grapefruits, herbs and spices.

Tangy finish with limes and light almonds.

Elegant and fruit forward. Soft and smooth. Nicely balanced with a nice mouthfeel.

Good by itself or with food.

Would be nice to revisit it in 5 years, and see how it evolves.

13.5% alcohol by volume.

Dark ruby in color with a wide reddish rim, and medium plus intensity.

Pretty nose of red flowers, red berries, spices, chocolates and tobacco.

Medium plus in body with medium acidity.

Dry on the palate with raspberries, cherries, plums, light oak, spices, chocolates, licorice, tobacco leaf, earth and dark coffee.

This is a delicious Mourvedre from Bandol. Complex and interesting with good structure. Rich and fruit forward.

This 5 year old is starting to drink very nicely now, and will continue to age nicely in the next 10 to 15 years.

Easy drinking and good by itself or with food.

Pale salmon. First impression — not what I was expecting for a rosé. Medium-plus intensity with subtle notes of vanilla, minerals, and brioche, with hints of peach, strawberry, and grapefruit. Full-bodied with a creamy, elegant texture. Well balanced, with medium-plus acidity and a long finish. Opens up nicely with a little air.
