Made from Grillo grapes and matured for 34 years in 300-liter barrels and then, from 2008, aged in the bottle. The intense aroma still has citrusy notes, floral ones and various candied accents, scents of yellow and dark spice, curry, ginger and resin. Overall very complex yet incredibly young. The mouthfeel is thick with an unexpected and wonderful freshness that ushers in a finish of both rare persistence and elegance. An incredibly drinkable wine.
