ANDREMILY WINES
Mourvedre 2021
The stunning 2021 Mourvèdre shows the fresher, focused, slightly cooler style of the vintage perfectly while still being 100% Andremily goodness. Red and blue fruits, orange blossom, violets, leather, and peppery incense nose all define this stunner, and it hits the palate with full-bodied richness, a concentrated, powerful mouthfeel, integrated acidity, and plenty of fine-grained tannins. It picks up some classic Mourvèdre bloody, iron-like nuances with time in the glass, and it will ideally be given 3-4 years of bottle age. It will see its 20th birthday in fine form.
