Beautiful coastal mountain Mourvèdre from Alder Springs Vineyard in northern Mendocino County. Picked up the fruit in a U-Haul and put a little dry ice in the chamber to keep it cool on the drive to the winery. 75% whole cluster. Cold-soaked, foot-treaded, fermented on native yeasts and then aged in neutral oak for nine months. Lively fruit with notes of tea and earth. “Lithe, juicy, and delicious” -Vinography
