These are the three main red grape varieties that come out of the Rhône Valley in France. Many of you are probably familiar with single varietal wines like Grenache and Syrah, but Mourvèdre is expressed as a single varietal far less. It is however, used in the standard Rhône red blend called GSM (this stands for Grenache, Syrah, and Mourvèdre). This pattern stays true in California as well, so it's exciting to find a label, like Groundwork, that makes a 100% Mourvèdre. Some people will say that single varietals don't have as much depth or character as blends do, but this is not the case for this specific wine.
