91 POINTS, JEB DUNNUCK:
All Mourvèdre from a single vineyard in Paso Robles, the 2021 Mourvèdre Cornflower Blue Paper Street Vineyard offers a meaty, gamey nose of black fruits, melted licorice, black pepper, spring flower, and candied violet-like nuances. This carries to a ripe, medium to full-bodied Mourvèdre that's sweetly fruited, has a soft, mouth-filling texture, and outstanding length. This pleasure-bent, fruit-loaded, pure, juicy Mourvèdre will drink nicely for 7-8 years.
