The color is golden amber and brilliant. The aroma hints at honey, toasted almond and vanilla. Sweet and rich taste, balanced by vibrant acidity. Candied fruit, citrus, apricot and dried figs are the dominant notes. Very long persistent finish.
Pairings: typical Tuscan desserts. Excellent with blue cheeses or liver paté.
