Blind, this wouldn't have been out of place at the Tre Bicchieri SF tasting yesterday at Fort Mason. Best Doon juice in a long time. 2011.

A nice varietal Mourvèdre, with the acids nicely smoothed out and rounded. It tastes a bit jammy, with strawberry and raspberry fruits.

The bulk comes from the Evanghelo vineyard, and all from old vine plots in Oakley CA. Wonderful wine.

Black fruits, dark chewy gnarliness, sandy (scent), lighter side of medium body. Decant or let breathe in glass to relax, otherwise a bit aggressive. Very nice Mourvèdre, from a cooler vintage year.
