Critics Ratings

'Typical Beaumont Mourvedre in its lightness and perfume, compounded by the elegance of the 2012 vintage. Cranberries, pomegranate, tea leaf and green olive. A bright line of acidity is keeping the wine lively with a lovely light texture, although the medium body is mature and ready to be enjoyed now and comfortably over the next 2-4 years.' - Higgo Jacobs (March 2022)

'The 2012 Mourvèdre (incidentally there is no more Shiraz/Mourvèdre blend) is raised in used oak. It has a delicate nose for this grape variety, tertiary infused black fruit mixed with a dab of melted tar. The palate is medium-bodied with supple ripe blackberry and raspberry fruit intermingled with white pepper and fennel. This is a stylish, quite understated Mourvèdre that shows the deft hand of winemaker Sebastien Beaumont, who obviously loves this variety. This comes recommended.' - Neil Martin, Wine Advocate, 90/100 (Nov 2015)
