An extremely rare wine which I acquired directly from the historic Dioni brothers in Parma in my university days... the early 1980s. I drank the next-to-last bottle a few years ago and it was one of the most moving wines of its kind I have ever tasted. The wine has an antique, golden-yellow color and a wonderfully intense aroma with a great balsamic sensation and that of candied orange making it very citrusy. There are also terrific notes of sweet tobacco and those of dried goji and caramel. The mouthfeel is still taut with a lively acidity giving it a sweet-non-sweet sensation that makes this a solemn drop.
Being a collector’s item the price would not be less than 300 euros.
