Tasting notes
Medium garnet, the 2021 Mourvèdre Pliocene is scented of blueberries, cranberries, garrigue and bergamot with touches of underbrush. The medium-bodied palate is supple and fresh with a core of floral fruits and a long, ethereal finish. It's spicy, inviting and approachable! 405 cases were made.

All Mourvèdre from a selection of own rooted vines, the 2021 Mourvedre Pliocene offers up bright red and blue fruits as well as notes of incense, leather, and spices. It's loaded with character and is medium-bodied and elegant, with terrific overall balance as well as outstanding length. Drink this character-filled beauty over the coming 7-8 years as well.
Bottled shortly before my visit, the 2021 Mourvèdre Pliocene is fabulous. It offers terrific fruit purity and aromatic presence. Crushed red berry fruit, mint, white flowers and chalk abound. This fresh, vibrant Mourvèdre is absolutely delicious and also full of character. Then again, this plant material originates from Enz and was planted own-rooted at Stolpman.
