Another big, rich, opulent 2022, the 2022 No 11 offers a smorgasbord-like array of red, black, and blue fruits as well as pepper, herbes de Provence, violets, and cured meats. It’s heavenly stuff on the palate and is full-bodied, with a round, deep, full-bodied mouthfeel and velvety tannins. Based on 91% Syrah, 6% Mourvdre, and 3% Viognier, aging in 65% new oak, I suspect its going to drink nicely right out of the gate (thats the vintage) yet, nevertheless, evolve gracefully for 15 years or more given its concentration and balance.
