100% Mourvèdre - has lifted stripped down elegance and lithe structure, with slow building fruit, but there is a stark leather complexity and mineral edge from its forlorn mediterranean landscape. Reminds you of the unadorned, sunwashed, foreboding air of Mario Sorrento’s early 90s Calvin Klein ‘Obession’ campaign with Kate Moss.

Tobacco and medium fruit on the nose. Sharp, ripe fruit with hints of leather and spice. Very different and interesting.
