Tasting notes / Reviews: Deep yellow-gold core with hints of copper. On the nose, it is very complex, with dried and candied fruit, hints of apricot and of orange peel. Notes of yellow flowers accompanied by warm and full ethereal sensations of intense honey. On the palate, the wine is complex, well-structured, sweet yet with refreshing acidity, opulently soft, with lingering fruity taste of candied fruit and honey aftertaste.
"Aged in partially filled, old 50 litres caratelli for 4 years, without being touched. Rich treacly, raisined fruit, complex and interesting to be sure; low VA. Full, sweet, concentrated yet very refined and clean. Delicate and concentrated. Just 1000 500ml per year." **1/2 / 92 pts, John Szabo, MS.
