Our luscious GSM with notes of dark plum, black pepper brisket, shoyu, woods violet, potpourri and fresh leather on the nose. Peppered bacon, smoked meats, brandy soaked cherries, tar and leather on the finish.
What mute romantic extravagance...
2021 Moth Love, 92 Points
The 2021 Aniche Cellars Moth Love Red Wine from Yakima Valley is a blend of 50% Grenache, 25% Syrah, and 25% Mourvèdre, sourced from Boushey Vineyard. Aromas of dark cherry, licorice, and dried herbs emerge alongside notes of cocoa and pepper spice. On the palate, juicy plum and cranberry tones mingle with hints of citrus rind and dusty earth, carried by a smooth, rounded texture. Medium in weight with gentle tannins, the wine finishes with freshness and savory lift.- International Wine Review, Jeremy Young
2021 Moth Love- The 2021 ‘Moth Love’ combines mainly Grenache (50%) wth equal parts Syrah and Mourvèdre. Translucent in the glass, this delivers tobacco leaf notes on the nose alongside tar and black truffle alongside shades of red currants. The palate is soft and generous with rich fruits and a smooth mouthfeel. Delicious now, enjoy over the next six to eight years. Drink 2024-2031- 92 points, Owen Bargreen
2016 Moth Love A red with a softness and sweetness of fruit that offers plenty of dried-strawberry and earth character, round tannins and a juicy finish. Velvety. 57% syrah, 24% grenache and 19% mourvedre. Drink or hold. 91 points, James Suckling
The 2016 ‘Moth Love’ combines Syrah (57%) with Mourvedre (19%) and Grenache (24%), as this wine was sourced from the Rattlesnake Hills AVA. Sandalwood tones are woven together with smoked meats, leather and a core of dark fruits aromatically. The soft, generous texture is truly lovely. Black tea, blackberry cobbler and mocha flavors mingle with the smoky and earthy undertones. Showing good weight and minerality this wine will cellar well for another five to seven years.
