The heat and generous sunshine of the 2015 vintage brings forth extra intensity and richness in terms of mouthfeel, with ripe cherry, blackberry and wild plum, leaving you with something you might serve alongside crostini with chicken-liver paté. The mouthfeel is thin and easy, falling short of the length and depth this celebrated vintage is known for. Some 40,000 bottles were produced.
