Red fruits on the nose and medium plus in body with medium acidity.
Dry on the palate with nice complexity and mouthfeel.
Long finish with round tannins and tangy cherries.
This young Mourvedre from Bandol is starting to drink beautifully now. Already showing nice complexity and good balance, and will continue to age nicely in the next 10 to 15 years.
Soft and elegant. Complex and interesting. Easy drinking and good by itself or with food.
A blend of 90% Mourvedre and 10% Grenache. Aged in used French oak barrels for 18 months.
Seriously, has there ever been a disappointing red wine from Contra Costa? Every red vine there is over 100 years old on ungrafted roots in 20 feet of pure sand. What kind of jerk can fuck that up?
Blind tasting for the staff. Still loads of tannin here but approachable enough. Dried black currant, mulberry, and licorice root. Garrigue. They all guessed ten year old Southern Rhone or Bordeaux. Lovely. Got this on sale for $27 about 5 years ago. — 2 months ago
2022 vintage. PNP. Rich and smooth. Thought there would be some earth/dirt but this was gone too quickly to properly investigate. 3.11.26. — a month ago
Bucket list wine. Always wanted to try the red but it is elusive. Some say it’s the Grand Cru of Provence. Found it at Grand Barrail in Bordeaux FR. It is decadent, I’d have it again any day. — a month ago
2010 James Berry rough by our buddy Rob went up after the 2013 Alban Patrina. Wow, a Syrah blend with plenary of Grenache, it was more elegant and very smooth with velvet mouthfeel and red fruits. Long finish. Lovely evening. — a month ago
