Maestro 2015
Fermented in a combination of oak and concrete eggs, the fifth vintage of this cuvée of Chardonnay, Roussanne, Chenin, Grenache Blanc and Viognier is the best yet. Savoury, herbal and deftly oaked, with creamy lees, some nutmeg and vanilla spice and effortless integration between the five varieties.
