Château La Roque
Cuvée Les Vieilles Vignes de Mourvedre Coteaux du Languedoc Pic St. Loup


Pours sangria in color ON THE NOSE: raspberry, meat and smoke. ON THE PALATE: dark fruits with a hint of mineralogy and earthiness. Very soft and pleasing. Medium body with a long finish. This is a great wine just not as fruit forward as our New swords palate is use to.

A cool find while on travel in the DC area. Damn nice old vine Mourvèdre from the LongDock - from 50-60 year old vines to boot. A tasty, balanced marriage of overripe raspberry, old spice, sea breeze, and violet with hints of leather trying to sneak out. Moderate tannins all wrapped up in a nice violet. Buy this wine!

Meaty, gamey and good acid. Long finish. I like a lot.
