Mourvèdre / 2022
This wine invites you in with alluring notes of violet, dark plum and black pepper. The wine is expansive on the palate with flavors of blackberries, blueberries and tobacco. This is a rich and luscious wine with strong, bold tannins and a lingering finish.

The Buena Vista Vinicultural Society, formed in 1863 by the winery’s founder, Count Agoston Haraszthy to further improve its winemaking prowess and expand its vineyards, has been restored as a collection of unique small-production wines that honor the winery’s pioneering spirit and contribution to California winemaking. The Vinicultural Society explores clonal selections, varietals and the incredible terroir of Sonoma County and beyond. In keeping with the adventurous spirit of Buena Vista’s founding, we are proud to bring you this Mourvèdre. Mourvèdre is native to Spain but was brought to Provence, France in the late Middle Ages. The grape was rarely bottled by itself and was instead used as a component of field blends. However, the increasing popularity and prestige of Rhône varietals has given this varietal a new life and it has proven to make a delicious single-varietal wine.
