for the first time, this release of buty's rediviva, from estate vineyards in the rocks region of walla walla, includes a bit of mourvèdre. the pretty fruit flavors of strawberry preserves, blueberry and black cherry carry both a mineral underpinning and a whiff of the barnyard in the nose. the aging in mostly neutral puncheons and barrels adds just a hint of baking spices.
