Score: ✧✧✧ |
The wine shows an intense amber yellow color, transparent. The nose denotes
good aromas, mainly of dried fruit and jams, such as dried apricot, dried fig,
bitter almond, fig jam, caramel and the typical oxidized Marsala aroma. The
mouth reveals, with a good correspondence to the nose, the flavors perceived
to the nose and the alcohol is in good evidence, however the wine is balanced,
with intense flavors of dried fig and jam. The finish is persistent with
pleasing hints of dried fig, fig jam and caramel.
