A 100% Mourvedre (Monastrell), this wine was richly fruity and a great value.
Eye: Dark ruby with violet highlights.
Nose: Beautifully pure fruity nose -- ripe plums, grapes, and blackberries, with a subtle background note of stony minerals.
Mouth: Soft, broad entry, with good concentration and lots of body. Loads of fruit and soft tannin in the finish. Not complex, but very satisfying as an everyday red.
Score: 88.
Cellar or drink? Drink over the next two years.
Price/Store: $12 and change at Spec's on Holcombe.
