This
was one of the inaugural wine releases by 7 Creeks Vineyard when they opened.
Sourced from Texas High Plains, this vintage underwent cryo-maceration which is
reflected in the fabulously smooth flavor and texture of this great red wine. At five years old, there is a light purple translucence
against the backlight. The red fruit
aromas are quite intense. Those first
few sips are equally pleasing with a touch of spice, everything nice and some
earthy undertones. With moderate tannins and good acids, this easy drinking
Mourvèdre can be paired with a wide variety of great dishes. It is literally so
nice and smooth, that it is equally enjoyable on its own as well. Well done 7
Creeks Vineyard. Enjoy!
Wine Of The Moment is just that. A moment of trying out a new bottle of wine and sharing our thoughts and impressions. There is no planned wine bottle that is to be opened or set time that it will be tasted. It is what ever just happens to be opened...for the moment. On occasion, we may also post our feedback on new wineries that we have visited as well as unique cheeses. So, pull up your own plate of cheese, crackers, and fruit and enjoy these discussions.
