WTN: Ojai Vin Du Soleil Rouge '02...(short/boring)

by TomHill » Wed Dec 15, 2010 9:55 am

Stumbled across this last night, so cracked that sucker open:
1. OjaiVnyd Vin du Soleil Rouge (56% Mourvedre/25% Grenache/19% Syrah; PurisimaMtnVnyd/SBC; 14%) 2002: Very dark color w/ slight bricking; strong juicy/plummy/strawberry/blackberry/Mourv slight licorice/pungent light toasty/oak some smokey/pungent/spicy interesting nose; soft/smooth rather plummy/licorice/Mourv bit chocolaty/juicy light pungent/toasty/oak flavor; med.long juicy/plummy/blackberry/Mourv slight tannic/hard light toasty/oak slight tannic/dried out finish; speaks mostly of plummy/Mourv; starting to dry out a bit but still a mighty fine drink. $14.00

A wee BloodyPulpit:
1. This is a wine Adam made only a couple of times. Had an ugly/garish label on it to denote it was a bistro-style wine. The wine had that juicy character you get from PurisimaMtn grapes. Still holding together but wouldn't press it much further.
