The 2022 Mourvèdre is a beautifully complex and structured expression of this classic Rhône varietal, balancing deep, earthy tones with vibrant acidity and refined tannins.

On the nose, layers of blackberry, plum, and cherry intertwine with gamey, earthy notes of mushroom, forest floor, and wet stone. Hints of cola, black pepper, and subtle lavender add further nuance.

The palate is medium-bodied with a soft, approachable entry that quickly evolves into a vibrant and structured mid-palate. Lingonberry and ripe blueberry flavors shine, complemented by mouthwatering black pepper and a touch of preserved fruit. The tannins are persistent yet elegant, carrying through a medium-length finish.

Wine critic Matt Kettman of Wine Enthusiast said..."Deep aromas of violet, blueberry and uncracked peppercorn meet with the slighted bit of gamy funk on the nose of this estate-bottling. Creamy, thick tannins fill the palate, where blueberry, acai and purple flower flavors are bold and satisfying." 93 points

Wine critic Owen Bargreen said..."The really good 2022 Caliza Mourvedre was stored in 45% new French oak barrels before bottling. This is wonderfully meaty on the nose showing brisket tones alongside black licorice, damp earth and huckleberry tones on the nose. The palate is deep and concentrated with outstanding finesse. Fresh and beautifully textured stuff, with peat moss and truffle accents, with a chalky minerality, this is already drinking marvelously. Entirely sourced from their estate vineyard. Drink 2025-2038" 95 points
