2019 Mourvèdre, Old Vine, Chalone
Product Image for 2019 Mourvèdre, Old Vine, Chalone
Aged 24 months in used French Oak, 210 cases
The 2019 Old Vine and certified organic Rodnick Vineyard Mourvèdre is one of the best yet with inexpressive concentration and depth, while being very elegant and firmly in the house style with smooth tannins and a deep floral perfume; this is a heady and opulent version of this grape, which is most famous in Provence’s Bandol region. Opening with a salvo of peony and seeped rose petals along with red berry compote this Mourvedre adds classic earthy cherry, plum and wild berry fruits on the full bodied palate along with a nice elegant wood note with just a hint of feral meatiness, tarry licorice, mission fig and dusty spices.

Aged 24 months in one and two-use French oak, 87 cases

From oldest (1972&1973) Chalone appellation blocks still in production, a lovely amber-tinged garnet: highly aromatic, with hints of pot-pourri, conifer, and sandalwood. Distinctive on the palate, redolent of macerated herbs, tangerine peel and red berries, but lively and intense on the back palate and finish.
