Country: US / Belle Colline Vineyard
Variety: Monastrell California
Winery: Bokisch / Clements Hills
Also known as Mourvèdre. This Spanish-inspired Monastrell from Bokisch, grown on a hillside, is brawny with plenty of earth and bacon bite to it, yet also floral, rich yet also bright, tasting of black cherry and pomegranate with a menthol tobacco chaser.
