Lastly the Syrah-dominated 2021 No 10 reveals a dense purple hue as well as a wild bouquet of blueberries wild strawberries ground pepper game iron and assorted floral meaty nuances. Stunningly complex even at this young age this beauty hits the palate with full-bodied richness a pure layered seamless mouthfeel ample tannins and underlying structure and a finish that won?t quit. It will clearly be a match for the 2020 and this puppy is going to flirt with perfection at maturity.

The 2021 No. 10 is a blend of 93% Syrah 5% Mourvèdre and 2% Viognier. Grapes come from several vineyards including Andremily's new Slide Hill estate in Edna Valley White Hawk Larner Harrison-Clarke Kimsey and Alta Mesa Vineyards in Santa Barbara County. It was vinified with 50% whole clusters and matured for around 22 months in 65% new French barriques. Bottled August 12 and tasted October 25 it boasts a supermassive black hole of dark perfumed fruit at the core. With time in the glass it reveals pure accents of mint chocolate vanilla bean olives lilac tar and botanical nuances. The palate is incredibly concentrated its graphite-laced fruit waiting to explode. All that depth of fruit is balanced by fireworks of fresh acidity and velvety tannins and it has a highly latent finish. 900 cases were made which will be sold as part of a three-bottle box set for $330. A few magnums were also made which will be sold as part of a two-bottle set with the 2021 Mourvèdre. Published: Nov 16 2023
