A unique dessert wine made from carefully selected Malvasia grapes. Old gold color with copper accents. Pleasant aromas of peach, apricot and honey, rounded off by scents of thyme and oregano. On the palate, this sweet wine reveals new flavors including ripe figs and orange marmalade. Excellent, fully integrated acidity and well-balanced residual sugar with a long impressive finish.
This dessert wine really shines alongside something more savory, spicy like Roquefort. We also recommend it with different types of cheesecakes and fruit desserts with vanilla ice cream on the side.
