Score: ✧✧✧✧✧ |
Marsala Superiore Riserva Semisecco Ambra Donna Franca shows a deep amber
yellow color and nuances of amber yellow, transparent. The nose reveals
intense, clean, pleasing, refined and elegant aromas which start with hints
of dried fig, dried apricot, almond and date followed by aromas of raisin,
caramel, vanilla, citrus fruit peel, nail polish, rancho, honey, rhubarb,
walnut husk and licorice. The mouth has excellent correspondence to the
nose, a pleasing sweet and crisp attack, however balanced by alcohol, full
body, intense flavors, pleasing roundness. The finish is very persistent
with long flavors of dried fig, dried apricot, honey and almond. Marsala
Superiore Riserva Semisecco Ambra Donna Franca ages for at least 15 months
in casks followed by at least 6 months of aging in bottle. |
