2023 Andremily Santa Barbara County Mourvèdre
97-

Jeb Dunnuck
Review Date: 09/2025Made from 87% Mourvèdre from Alta Mesa and 13% Syrah from Slide Hill that was 30% destemmed and aged 21 months in 50% new French oak barrels and demi-muids, the 2023 Mourvèdre is killer stuff. Darker berries, pepper, violets, lavender, and gamey nuances all shine in this ripe, full-bodied, powerful effort. It's balanced, has ripe tannins, and a great finish.

Notes
More praise from Jeb Dunnuck: "Jim Binns continues to absolutely crush it with Andremily, and I’ve yet to see him miss a beat. The majority of the 2023s were tasted from barrel, and there are a couple of wines that could easily top out the scale, showing the combination of power and purity he’s become known for. These are always rich, concentrated, full-throttle wines, yet the cooler nature of 2023 brings extra precision and vibrancy. By contrast, the 2022s are more sun-kissed, bigger, and more opulent, delivering everything you’d expect from this incredible winemaker. Binns is also now the owner of the Slide Hill Vineyard in the Edna Valley, located just across from John Alban’s estate, and the quality coming from this site has taken off since he’s been in charge. Across the board, whether it’s the Rhône blends, the Mourvèdre, or the flagship Syrah-driven cuvées, the quality is just off the charts, and this remains one of the most exciting estates in California."
