Telaya Wine Co., in Garden City, Idaho, sourced fruit from the state’s breadbasket — Skyline Vineyard — for its 2013 Mourvèdre. Then Earl and Carrie Sullivan, the owners and winemakers, turned it into a dark, intense wine that offers hints of white pepper, blackberries and almost jammy black currants in its aromas, then blackberries, black currants and minerality in its full-bodied finish. Its tannins linger in the background, then take a brief bow at the end.
