The 2009 (3.5*), matured in a ‘combination of tank, staves and barrels’, is an easy-drinking style, creamy-textured, with strong, ripe, peachy flavours, a gentle oak influence and a well-rounded finish. The 2010 vintage (3*), 60 per cent barrel-aged, is mouthfilling, citrusy, smooth and dry, with ripe fruit characters to the fore, a hint of oak and good depth.
