Andremily

Santa Barbara County Mourvedre 2019

Hello beautiful, I mean Mourvedre.
“Simply the best.” ~Black Eyed Peas.

Super expressive nose. Scents of preserved fruit, earth, rose petals and olives. Full-bodied and savory. Layers of complexity, dense fruit, balance and fresh acidity.

The 2019 Mourvedre is 81% Mourvèdre, 18% Syrah and 1% Viognier. The winemaker, Jim Binns, was assistant winemaker at Sine Qua Non before starting Andremily. The Andremily website offers this on the 2019 — it leaps from the glass offering a head bouquet of smoked meats, ground pepper, boysenberry, blackberries, expresso, and plenty of Mourvedre funk. With a rich full texture, ripe tannins, and a lingering finish that goes on for more than a minute, this is one sexy Mourvedre.

Rule #35 Absolutely nothing wrong with opening a young wine when it is as good as this one ☝️. Yes I could have held it for a few years, but why?!

If I ever have to narrow down my purchases to only five producers, Andremily makes the cut. I love every wine, but this Mourvèdre may be my favorite of theirs.

@Shay A I’m late to the Andremily party, but I have become a super fan. Love love love the Mourvèdre. Can’t wait to order more the next go around.

Ognostro Aglianico 2016

Cellar raid #35 - Give it 30 minutes with a poor man’s decanter and 💥- classic Aglianico made with a light hand. Ready to drink now but lots of time ahead of it. Bravo Marco! — 2 years ago

My first time trying a Bierzo. #35 on Wine Spectator Top 100 list for 2018. Not my favorite varietal. A little too tannic for my palate. — 5 years ago
