Small Berry Mourvèdre

2009 Contra Costa County Mourvèdre

Cline Small Berry Mourvèdre from the 2009 vintage showcases the distinctive character of the Mourvèdre varietal, hailing from the sun-drenched Contra Costa County. This red wine is medium-bodied, offering a balanced experience that enchants the palate without overwhelming it. With bright acidity, it brings a refreshing vibrancy that perfectly complements the wine's luscious fruit intensity, revealing notes of dark berry and plum. The tannins are subtle, providing a smooth texture that enhances the wine's overall elegance. It is crafted to be dry, allowing the rich flavors to shine through without any cloying sweetness. Enjoy this delightful wine alongside savory dishes or simply savor it on its own for a truly memorable experience.

Central Coast

California's Central Coast might be a bit quieter than Napa or Sonoma to the north, but this lesser-known region produces many world-class wines. Enjoying incredible terroir along its vast 280-mile stretch—from San Francisco Bay to Santa Barbara—Central Coast wines are increasingly in demand. Its position between the Pacific Coast Ranges and the Southern Coast Ranges is key to its quality, with many cool-climate AVAs offering elegant Pinot Noir, Chardonnay, Syrah and Merlot. In the hotter parts of the Central Coast, away from the coastal fogs and cold mountain slopes, Cabernet Sauvignon, Cabernet Franc, Syrah, Grenache and Mourvèdre are exceptional.
