Purplish in color with a wide reddish rim. Fruity nose and medium plus in body with medium acidity. Dry on the palate with nice complexity. Showing black fruits with light wood, spices, coffee, dark chocolates, earth, tobacco leaf, herbs and black pepper. Long finish with fine grained tannins and tangy cherries. This is a delicious Mourvedre from Bandol. Rich and fruit forward with nice complexity. Elegant with lots of fruits and chocolate notes. This 5 year old is drinking beautifully now, and will continue to age nicely in the next 25 years. A good sipping wine that will also pair nicely with food. A blend of 90% Mourvedre and 10% Grenache. Aged in used French oak barrels for 18 months. 14.5% alcohol by volume. 92 points. $50.

Flexing ABVs (14.5%) with a cool waxy restraint. Where it could be gregarious and ripe fruit candy, it's waxy pale strawberries and cool whipped cream. Dried orange peels and tamed herbal undergrowth - rosemary and thyme.
