Deep purple in color with a wide reddish rim.
Fruity nose of wild flowers, black currants, cooked plums, light oak, spices, chocolates, coffee, licorice, light vegetables and black pepper.
Full-bodied and elegant with medium acidity.
Dry and very fruity on the palate with black plums, cooked cherries, currants, light wood, spices, coffee, dark chocolates, earth, tobacco leaf, herbs, peppercorn and licorice.
Medium finish with fine grained tannins.
This is a very tasty Mourvedre from Languedoc-Roussillon in France. Elegant and smooth. Fruit forward and spicy.
Good right out of the bottle, and better after 30 minutes of airtime.
This 9 year old is rich, complex and engaging. Feels more like a new world Syrah than a red Bandol.
Will not get any better from this point, and will continue to drink nicely in the next few years.
The high alcohol is well integrated by now. A nice sipping wine.
A blend of 85% Mourvèdre, 10% Grenache and 5% Syrah.
15.5% alcohol by volume.
91 points.
$90.
