Mourvèdre
$38.00
We planted Mourvèdre in 1993. This grape varietal pronounced (mohr-VED-dra) is full bodied with dark fruit flavors, berries, earthy and certainly a little wild and savory. We age this wine in small American oak barrels a little longer to produce a well balanced wine with soft tannins. We recommend that you decant this wine in order to release the abundant flavors and aromas.

Estate grown
This wine was fermented in macro bins; where the juice rested for several days before undergoing a natural fermentation. We then pitched just enough yeast to keep everything going smoothly and started a secondary malolactic fermentation. We Barrel aged the wine in small American Oak casks, to fully bring out the finesse and expressiveness of the aromas. Excellent for a steak, ribs, pasta and more.
