"One never knows"
An intense dark brick red / black color with aromatics of blue / black fruits and brandied cherries, intermingle with wild game, charcuterie, black licorice and other savory notes. As incredible as the aromatics are, the flavors and mouthfeel of this wine are on another level.
This wine was aged in 100% new Demi Muid 158-gallon French oak barrel using 100% whole clusters. As a winemaker, you would think this wine would show tons of savory notes and more new oak nuances. In fact, due to the pure concentration of this wine, these components take a back seat to the purity of the fruit and the vineyard.
The full, over-the-top front palate is loaded with black cherry, wild herbs, and wild mushrooms. The mid palate and finish seem to start and go on forever. Twist shows aspects of demi-glace of both beef and lamb and extra dose of rosemary, sage and tarragon. Exotic, seductive, and hedonistic.
Why This Wine?
I love Mourvèdre, and I love the wines of Bandol, but I wanted to create something seductive and a touch kinky — leather and lace. Thus, making this wine with 100% whole cluster was the answer. Mourvèdre is already very dark and mysterious, but them I add the major savory component of the stems and this wine is out-of-control! I made this wine to make your senses go crazy.
