Don't know how Delectable would do this. Winner of this year's Young Guns of Wine, Dormilona wines' new releases. From left to right:

2016 Clayface Pet Nat: Chenin. In typical Dormilona Clayface manner, fermented in amphora terracota pots. Wild ferment. No sulphur, fining, or filtration.

2016 Skinnie: Stunning skinnie made of Sauv Blanc. Again, fermented in amphora. Aged in amphora and barrel (old?). Battonage. Minimal sulphur. A smart and most importantly, delicious orange.

2016 Chenin Blanc: Oh wow! Seriously gotta have more Chenin from the Margaret. Gotta love the creaminess leesiness minerality length of this wine.

2016 Rosado: Rosé from Tempranillo. Solid! Though it didn't really stand out in this crowd.

Jo and Jimmy are truly rising stars of the region! Can't wait to see more of their wines.

Beautiful packaging and drop! Tart, fruity and light with notes of pear and apple. The texture when drinking is quite different but really enjoyable it’s a wine full of life! 🥂
