Aging: Over 12 years in French barriques.

Tasting Notes: Trebbiano & Malvasia. Deep burnt caramel in color with aromas of toasted hazelnut, vanilla, and baked apples. Honey, caramel, and orange zest on the palate supported by brilliant acidity with a long and balanced finish. It goes naturally with the Foie gras, but the degree of acidity suggests an excellent combination with chocolate and nut cake.
