Mourvedre – 2017; Crowson Wines; Johnson City, Texas

It is always a delight to try a Texas 2017! This Texas High Plains sourced fruit from Buena Suerte Vineyards is a testament to that.  When pouring this ruby color wine, those aromas of rose petals really come out along with a touch of citrus.  The cherry and tomato flavors are great plus some noteworthy earthy undertones. It has great acidity, some lingering cigar notes, and a bold impression after every sip. You would think at 15.9% alcohol it would pack a punch, but a good winemaker knows how to craft such high alcohol wine well. Cheers!
