I was very happy to receive this little monster in the mail last week. I think #TeamMourvedre may have itself a new unofficial mascot, courtesy of Bonny Doon Vineyard.
I think he/she needs a name.
Morris?
Maurice?
Morty?
Èd? (avec accent grave, bien sûr)
Feel free to offer your own suggestions.
You may recognize the little guy/gal/beast from the label on this bottle, previously reviewed. As I said then:
I want this on a t-shirt.
(Is anyone in Santa Cruz listening?)
The bottle itself is a half-bottle of Bonny Doon 2010 Mourvèdre “Mon Doux” — a dessert wine (“my sweet”) from old-vine Contra Costa County mourvèdre.
I’m very glad I added this to my club shipment, and can’t wait to see what this little beast has in store.
