Devium
French Creek Vineyard Mourvedre Blend
Walla Walla Valley, Oregon/Washington, USA
Third bottle, continues to drink like a puzzle box, but in a good way. Starts difficult and frustrating, a little fizzy and definitely weird. After a couple of hours, and then hours more, the funk fades to the background and notes of violet and deeper tones of black pepper, black fruit and a gravely quality come through. A good example of a project wine that you may not want to take to dinner with friends, but instead enjoy by yourself over the course of a weekend.
