Bold, balanced, and in my belly! Mourvèdre is the centerpiece, but the three have terrific harmony here.

It's like you asked the Mourvedre to do the 100 squats a day challenge for a month. Still pretty and delicate but with a more powerful lower body and some extra junk in the trunk. That's right. Grenache and Syrah = bootyliscousness.

Needs a little bottle rest. Grenache notes dominated initially, decanting brought out the MS contingent. Should cellar well.

Benefited from some time in the decanter. Bright fruit, good acidity but also good depth. A well balanced medium-bodied wine.

Very young obviously. Keeps evolving in air. Only 12.3 % abv. Good acidity, red fruit, pleasant pull of tannin on the finish.

Fresh cherry, cocoa powder nose; cooked fruits on the tongue; low tannins ; easy to drink; would pair well with red meats or pasta
