From Eric Jensen at Booker, this version is 46% grenache, 34% mourvedre, and 20% cunoise. Drinking really well, although I suspect it’s developed as much as it’s going to and will start to tail off pretty soon. Really enjoyable wine, though (and performs much better if you keep it at cellar temp).

This is an excellent bottle of wine and well worth the aging! Booker always stands up to the expectations!

This is absolutely outstanding. Beautiful fruit on the nose, the tannins are sweet and incredibly well integrated - pretty remarkable given the blend (lots of mourvedre) and its (relative) youth. Not sure what the ageing potential is on this, but I can’t imagine this getting any better. One of the best wines from Eric Jensen at Booker that I’ve ever had. Just terrific.

My sweetie said the nose and flavor was earthy, reminded her of the boa tree snake she had as a pet. That's a new one! Oh, and meant in a positive way. 15.3 ABV. Glad I got on their bandwagon a number of years ago, as they've become hot hot hot in the past few years.

Good stuff here. Rich. Vibrant. Big. Love the fruit. Not sure about the price. Was on the cusp but @ $75 not convinced given the heat.

So different than anything I've had. Grenache, Mourvèdre, and counoise. Light and fruit forward
