#MourvedreMonday

Mourvèdre, Monastrell, Mataro…

At the beginning of the year, as a sort of New Year’s Resolution, I decided to declare 2010 The Year of Mourvedre. To that end, I have started Mourvèdre Mondays, where I post a review of a Mourvèdre-based wine every Monday.

Below are links to the posts in the series to date. If you have recommendations for bottles I should include, let me know. (Wineries: if you’d like to see your wine included in the series, see the sample policy.)
