A sweet labour of love. Delicious dessert wine, made by harvesting ripe and looser bunches of Garganega, and allowing them to dry for 5 months before pressing, concentrating the sugars and flavours. The resulting wine is matured on new oak barriques for over two years, imbuing flavours of butterscotch and vanilla. Also expect notes of peach, apricot, almond and marmalade. Enjoy this 50cl bottle as a luxurious aperitif on a warm day, or after a meal, perhaps with a cheese plate, fresh fruit or frangipane.
