The 2020 Maturin is another solid 2020 barrel sample. Based on one-third each of Graciano, Mourvèdre, and Syrah, with 10% Grenache, it has lots of red and black fruits, orange blossom, and dried cranberry nuances to go with a full-bodied, fresh, wonderfully pure style on the palate. I like its tannins as well as its overall balance, and it should have over a decade of longevity.

The 2020 Maturin bursts from the glass with a blend of crushed black raspberries and cedary spice lifted by mentholated herbs and a cooling lavender whiff. This is pure elegance, silky and refined, coasting along the palate with tart red fruits that take on a more tactile feel as saline-mineral tones slowly saturate. It finishes dramatically long and potent, leaving the senses drenched in wild berry and violet candy concentration. The 2020 remains harmonious throughout. The Maturin is a blend of 38% Graciano, 32% Syrah, 20% Mataro and 10% Grenache that's fermented using 20-25% whole clusters and refined in 90% new French oak. It's a beast.
