The 2015 vintage (4.5*), certified organic, was partly barrel-fermented, with some use of new oak, and 60 per cent of the blend went through a softening malolactic fermentation. It has an invitingly fragrant, slightly creamy and nutty bouquet. A youthful, fleshy wine, it has generous, ripe, peachy, citrusy and slightly spicy flavours, showing good complexity, a minerally streak, and excellent vigour, depth and harmony. Best drinking 2018+.
