Captures the savory aspect of Mourvedre while highlighting its pure dark cherry notes. Black cherry confiture, sweet licorice, sweet wood, earth and leather. Punchy. Tannins are yielding, very drinkable

This could blow up a Northern Rhone lineup. Black olive, sweet & savory feral darkness. Tom Waits or Mark Lanegan would voiceover this wine.
