Perfumed dried fruit and sandalwood aromas are quite elegant. A firm entry leads to a structured, moderately full-bodied palate. A really elegant style with a lengthy finish.

A garden of southern Italian flavors, from sun-baked black plum and fresh, fuzzy figs to almonds, fennel and cherries. Crisp, lemon-like acidity provides the freshness of a sea breaze, the whole package reminding of an Arcimboldo in its myriad details and expressive structure...this is a wine to keep on hand for summer grill-outs as well as winter dinners by the fire.
