Still showing well. Fruit is lessening but characteristic notes of dark berry and raspberry still present.

- Purple color and aromas of blackberry, raspberry and strawberry. It's overly acidic and has flavours of blackberry, strawberry, raspberry, sweaty and mushroom with a light/medium body. Narrow texture with a short finish.

This was quite nice; rich and representative of a good Bordeaux mix. Although I did not decant it, it opened up nicely over the course of dinner..

Spicy and lively. Hot at first, but quickly settled down into a bright and complex wine.

Tasted this at the winery. This is a big wine that should be decanted.

100% Mourvedre. Very spicy nose - pepper, pimento, allspice, and a hint of lavender. Fresh and exciting palate. Moderate tannins and fresh acidity play with black currant fruits to provide good balance to this red. I tasted this at Darby again yesterday and it keeps getting better since I tasted 2/3 months ago. Drink now or hold for another year.

Tasted at winery: Great expression of this grape. Nice earthy flavors, rich big wine but keeps it elegant.
