"Singing crimson through the strong and well-defined lattice of Mourvèdre's deep blue-black tannins. Full of garrigue perfume, aromatic herbs, quarry-stone dustiness. A quiet beauty with the cool breath of wintergreen and wild mint bringing exceptional freshness."

When a tasting note sounds as beautiful as this one by Tamlyn Currin on JancisRobinson.com, I hardly need to add much.

This blend of 80% Mourvèdre and 20% Grenache from Villa Tempora leapt out of the glass at me with tremendous fruit. It is a wine that combines power and elegance while keeping its own identity.

On the nose, the wine is intense, with aromas of cassis, blackberries, black cherries and herbs. On the palate, it combines juicy freshness with a precise tannin structure and a very long finish.
