TASTING NOTES

The Twenty Eight Road Mourvèdre features a deep crimson colour accompanied by a bright ruby rim. The fragrant nose flaunts mesmerising scents of cherries, rhubarb, raspberries and sweet fruits. These fragrances combine with dried herb and iodine undertones on the light-bodied palate. Fine, grippy tannins and mouth watering acidity integrate with the fresh fruit flavours, to end the wine in a lively and captivating finale. This beautiful Mourvèdre from d’Arenberg can be carefully cellared for a few years from vintage. Pair it with beef short ribs, pork sausage and grilled portobello mushrooms to enjoy an appeasing meal.
