This varietal, rare in California, comes from the warmer regions of Southern France, but is the second most important black grape after Grenache in Spain. Mourvedre is a late - ripening varietal that flourishes with hot summer temperatures - the same conditions found in Amador County. The 1.7 acre estate vineyard is situated at an altitude of 2300 feet and enjoys a south - facing exposure. The soils here are a rocky loam with clay and sand. Mourvedre is typically a savory wine.

Edward Sellers Vineyards
2006 Cognito
View Label
Appellation: Paso Robles
Blend of Mourvedre, Syrah, Zinfandel, Grenache
Edward Sellers Vineyards

(Winery Info & All Wines)
In the Cognito, we blend our signature Rhone style with another Paso Robles all-star, old vine Zinfandel. Bursting with powerful, ripe aromas, the 2005 Cognito piles the best of all four varietals into one very approachable package.

Spann Vineyards
2006 Mo Zin
Appellation: California
Blend of Mourvedre, Syrah, Petite Sirah,
Spann Vineyards
(Glen Ellen, CA)
--
(Winery Info & All Wines)
Winemaker: Betsy Spann
This Provence-style blend is 42% Zinfandel, 30% Mourvedre, 20% Petite Sirah and 8% Syrah. Zinfandel from several old vine vineyards in the Dry Creek Valley and Mendocino County create a marvelous base of blackberry flavors while Mourvedre adds bursts of raspberry and a palate coating, meaty/beefy taste. Petite Sirah adds a touch of peppery spice while Syrah adds richness and body. This matches well with everything from grilled ahi tuna to Italian red sauce dishes to lamb and red meats.
