2020 AZIMUTH
44% Mourvedre, 29% Grenache, 27% Syrah

2020 AZIMUTH

Wine critic Owen Bargreen says, "The 2020 ‘Azimuth’ combines mostly Mourvèdre (44%) with smaller portions Grenache and Syrah. Smoked meats, lavender and dense dark fruits mark the nose. The palate is fresh and beautifully textured with a rich mouthfeel. Loaded with boysenberry and black cherry cordial flavors, with smoky and herbal accents, this is delicious wine that has already hit its stride. Drink 2023-2033" 94 pts.

This wine is very intriguing in many ways. The Mourvèdre dominance shines through with plentiful aromas of black cherries alongside notes of wild wetlands, thyme, rhubarb, tobacco, and orange zest. The bright and integrated acidity builds upon its layers through the pallet, lifting the wine all the way through the finish. Chewy yet round the graceful tannins dance on the palate to lingering notes of violets, dark chocolate, and rhubarb. Try it with pork belly burnt ends, cherry wood smoked ribs, or lighter Mediterranean fare.
