2023 Brij Wines Mourvedre, San Luis Obispo, California, USA
ABOUT THIS WINE
Sourced from organically farmed vineyards in San Luis Obispo County, this Mourvèdre benefits from the maritime influence of the nearby Pacific, which tempers the grape’s natural structure and brings aromatic lift. The 2023 vintage saw a cool, steady growing season, allowing for full phenolic ripeness without excess weight.
Grapes are hand-harvested and fermented with native yeasts, with a portion left as whole clusters to enhance spice and structure. The wine is aged in neutral barrels to maintain purity and expression of place. Expect notes of dark berries, dried rose, savory spice, and a stony, mineral core.
ABOUT THIS PRODUCER
Brij Wines is a Central Coast project led by Rajat Parr and a group of like-minded growers and winemakers dedicated to sustainable farming and hands-off winemaking. Inspired by Old World styles but rooted in California terroir, Brij focuses on transparent, site-driven wines with a sense of balance and restraint. Their Mourvèdre reflects the grape’s wild, savory character through a lens of coastal precision—thoughtful, expressive, and quietly bold.
