Château d’Esclans, Whispering Angel, Côtes de Provence, 2014

Gold Medal DWWA 2015 Nutty, waxy and weighty, this is vital and fresh, but with an appealingly earthy undertow. There's an attack of wild strawberry on a succulent palate which holds layers of flavour, a nutty core, with the finish really stretching out to a great length. Urbane and mightily impressive.
