2022 | Andremily Mourvèdre | Santa Barbara County Crozes-Hermitage The 2019 Clos des LambraysDeep garnet purple in color, the nose of the 2022 Mourvdre is so fragrant, giving up expressive notes of juicy blackberries, plum preserves, and black raspberries, leading to an undercurrent of lavender, violets, and forest floor. The full bodied palate has a rock solid texture of firm, grainy tannins and beautifully balanced acidity with taut, muscular black fruit and a long, Darjeeling tea laced finish. 98 Pts The Wine Independent
