40% Grenache, 40% Syrah, 20% Mourvedre. Grown, produced, and bottled by Stephan Vineyards, established in 1998 by Stephan Asseo. Features tea and tobacco leaf, garrigue, and jambon in the nose, as well as blueberries and pencil shavings.

This vineyard has always shown intense concentration of flavors due, in part, to the small yield that we receive. This wine has a silky texture, with flavors of chocolate, cherry and eucalyptus mint.

Hand-harvested on September 19th, the Mourvèdre grapes were foot-tread and fermented 100% whole cluster with native yeast, basket pressed, then aged in five neutral oak barrels for ten months, then bottled July 12th 2018.
