This 22 year old Mourvèdre from Bandol still feels fresh and engaging. Elegant, and starting to peak now. Well balanced and rich. Spicy and entertaining.
A gorgeous wine that will continue to drink nicely in the next 10 years.
Good right out of the bottle and a great sipping wine. Fruit forward, complex and interesting.
A blend of 90% Mourvèdre and 10% Grenache. Aged in large French oak barrels for 20 months.
14% alcohol by volume.
95 points.

Delicious and drinking beautifully right now. Nose is a beautiful amalgam of dark red fruit and classic Mourvèdre tree bark, along with dry loamy scents. Deep and rich in the mouth, but the balance is impeccable. Loads of very soft tannin cling the flavors to the mouth. Acids are medium low but enough to balance. Very nice. — 14 days ago
