B Leighton Gratitude Olsen Brothers Vineyard

B Leighton Gratitude Olsen Brothers Vineyard A Bandol-styled blend of 70% Mourvèdre, 25% Grenache and 5% Syrah, the 2015 Gratitude Olsen Brothers Vineyard wafts from the glass with fragrant aromas of red and black fruit, orange rind, aromatic bark and candied violets. On the palate, it's medium-bodied, supple and velvety, with lovely juicy acids and a complex, savory core of ripe fruit. The finish is long and perfumed. I'd be inclined to follow it over the coming decade.
