What to Expect

Though Mourvèdre is a grape with Spanish roots, where it is known as Monastrell, it is most closely associated with the South of France and the Bandol appelation in particular, where the grape produces rich, powerful wines that retain rustic tannins partnered with dark, wild berry flavors and gamy, leathery nuances. It is also commonly called Mataro in California.

Takes 45 minutes to fully open up. Once it does, abundant cherry aromas with a bit of black tea and herbs. Muted palate, with cherries, mineral notes. Takes a while for the tannins to take a back seat. Not entirely integrated and doesn't quite hang together, but once its opened its an easy drinker. Had with steak and baked potatoes.
