Description:
Our Mourvèdre Rosé is not only pretty to look at, but also great fun to drink. The aromas show lovely strawberry jam and spice notes which lead deliciously to the delicate, yet surprisingly complex fruit flavors. Refreshingly dry, this rosé finishes clean and long, with all elements in perfect balance.

Varietal Definition
Mourvedre:
As long as the weather is warm, Mourvedre ably tolerates a wide variety of soils. It is popular across the south of France, especially in Provence, where it is responsible for the greatness of Bandol, and many a fine red Cotes-du-Rhone. It is often blended in Chateauneuf-du-Pape; Languedoc makes it as a varietal. Spain uses it in many areas, including Valencia. In the United States, Mourvedre remains a minor factor for now, pursued by a few wineries that specialize in Rhone-style wines. The wine it produces can be quite pleasing, with medium weight, spicy cherry and berry flavors and moderate tannins. It ages well.
