Unfamiliar Mourvedre
So happy to see the Unfamiliar at goat.sheep.cow this week! I love this wine. Well-balanced, fruit forward but still with subtleties. Iโm sure itโs great with pork/lamb/etc but I love it all by itself ๐

Feb 17th, 2019Sow's ear -> silk purse. Lemons -> lemonade. Ashes -> Phoenix. Or something like that. Whatever the crappy input was, the output is juicy glou-glou American vin du soif by way of Beaujolais with a sidecar of natty Southwest France. I want this all the time. (Though not at the expense of declassing all the single vineyard fruit that's in here.) Even better when you're glamping in Baja. @Hardy Wallace

Slightly funky on the nose, but beautiful red fruit and luscious velvet tannin on the palate. Absolutely my favorite pizza wine now.

Iโm still not entirely sure how I feel about these wines, but on a warmer city night at cellar temp this is soft, fruit forward and quite enjoyable.
