Cline Cashmere 2015

This is a blend of 59% Mourvedre, 22% Grenache and 19% Syrah.  Aromas of cherry and strawberry with a hint of smoke.  Flavors of dark cherry and blueberry, mingle with a smooth, smokey slightly peppery taste.  I have had this wine many times in the past.  This vintage is not my favorite.  Although a good drinkable wine, there is something “off” about this wine.  There is a slight “salty” taste that I can not quite put my taste buds on.  I have enjoyed this wine in the past and Cline is a favorite winery of mine from way back, but this particular vintage just seems to be lacking something.
