A blend e 48% Mourvedre, 29% Grenache,20% Syrah, 3% Cinsault sounds great on paper, but this stuff ist better left to refuel my WWII German Model 41 restored FLAME THROWER, than to imbibe?
Holy ALCOHOL al FUME! This is a great Alfa Romeo parts cleaner...and did not calm down until 2 decantings, with rebottling x 2, then a week with the cork in resting in the chill cabinet, then it was civilized. It has the delicate initial nose of napalm in the morning; brings back fond memories?
Yikes; just way far out too much octane.
Frankly, after a nearly two week process outlined, it was soften to be enjoyable but not worth the man-handling required to get it to that point? Suggest serving right out of the bottle to relatives as soon as they arrive?
