This
Texas GSM style blend packs a bit more Mourvèdre but comes out well balanced
and delicious on all wine sensory fronts. The initial notes of strawberry and
raspberry greet you with this red wine blend of Mourvèdre 49%, Grenache 24%,
Syrah 17%, and Tannat 10%. You will notice the hue is predominantly purple with
some nice legs for this 14.2% abv wine. Plums and blackberries will follow, and
a bit of leather will round out the tasting profile. This is a higher acid GSM, so this wine pairs
nicely with good food. Overall, it has
great balance and soft tannins for this full-bodied wine. 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.
