2020 French Mourvedre

Known by many names throughout the world, Mourvedre has thrived along the Mediterranean’s warmest of climates.  Small, thick-skinned berries produce deeply colored reds, full-bodied and firmly tannic in style.  Historically a blending grape, many warm climate producers have put this varietal front and center to showcase the characteristic dark fruit, herb & earth flavors.
