I don’t come a cross a lot of un-blended Monastrell (Mourvedre, en Francais). But I do like it. There is a subtle berry buzz to this wine, with a very pure finish. And at the same time, its not light. If I were to complain about anything it would be that 14 % feels like a bit too alcohol. Come to think of it, the Cline Mourvedre is similarly strong. Maybe that’s why they always blend this varietal in the Rhone Valley. Still, tasty and worth it. I’ll probably have to try it again some time.
