Domaine de Mourchon

Dark ruby, purple reflections, broad ochre rim. Ripe plum, blackberry, black cherry and tobacco notes with a delicate herbal and savoury background. Juicy, fine fruit sweetness, vivid, savoury tannins, dark minerality, some nougat, a powerful food wine.

Whiffs of char and crushed peppercorn on first whiff shift towards crisp blackberry and fresh blueberry with aeration here. An unoaked blend of 65 % Grenache, 25 % Syrah and 10% Carignan matured in concrete vats, it's refreshingly crisp in black fruit flavors and etched by a fine filigree of salt and crushed stone. Full bodied but zesty, it's ready now yet should hold well through 2025.
