Cuvee Signature Henri Orenga de Gaffory AOP Patrimonio Vermentino
A clear demonstration of the ability for Vermentino wines to age, after five years Cuvée Signature 2015 has intense spicy aromas with marmalade and cooked bitter orange. On the palate, it is rich and concentrated with mellow complex flavours including more bitter orange and vanilla giving an impression of old Burgundy. It was produced from a special selection of the best barrels from the oldest vines on the estate. It was matured in oak for 18 months with regular lees stirring giving lots of toasty character.
Cuvee Signature Henri Orenga de Gaffory AOP Patrimonio Nielluccio
A mellow bouquet with oak, red fruits, crushed raspberries and floral potpourri notes. It is quite light on the palate – elegant and ethereal in nature. It is flavoursome with a long smoky finish: 2015 was a very good vintage with warm summer temperatures producing ripe fruit flavours. Matured in demi- muids (600-litre French oak casks) using 100% new oak for 24 months, yet the oak is not overpowering in any way. Cuvée Signature was first produced in 2013 and released in 2017 to celebrate the 50th anniversary of Domaine Orenga de Gaffory. A limited number of bottles are produced in the best years.
