Made from Grillo grown on head-trained vines in vineyards with a density of some 6,000 plants per hectare. The wine matured for 14 years in 300-liter barrels and then aged in the bottle. The amber color is not dark and has golden reflections. The aromas are almost youthful with notes of raisins, fresh, dark flowers, prickly pear, iodine, various candied fruits and hints of ginger. The smoked scent does not lean towards carob and thus makes everything youthful and elegant. The thick and wrapping mouthfeel is never too sweet thanks to an acidity that fantastically balances the sweetness. The persistent and youthful finish has notes of ginger, gorse and lavender.
