Repris 2016 Mélange Rouge

Repris 2016 Mélange Rouge

The legendary bottlings of France have always influenced the Repris winemaking philosophy, and in 2016 our Mélange Rouge captured the Old World elegance and dimension that we have always envisioned for it. Like the unparalleled offerings of Château de Beaucastel, savory Mourvèdre takes center stage, with an intensity and concentration that is balanced by the charm and brisk acidity of Grenache. A hint of Syrah lends richness and mouthfeel to the blend’s lingering finish.

Winemaker Notes

This is Moon Mountain Vineyard’s take on a traditional Southern Rhône blend with an emphasis on restraint and balance. The foundation of this wine is the interplay between the structure of mountain-grown Grenache and the cool-toned depth of Mourvèdre, harmonized by an accent of Syrah.
