Description

Cuvée 161 is the ultimate expression of Sella & Mosca's Torbato wine, the one in which the character of this ancient grape blends with the uniqueness of the thousand-year-old soils of marine origin and the contemporary vision of the winery. A long period of ageing on the lees, combined with a small portion fermented in barriques, results in a structured and complex wine.

Perfume

Perfume

Captivating notes of Mediterranean scrub, thistle and medicinal herbs.

Color

Deep straw with bright golden hues.

Taste

Taste

Fresh flowers and ripe fruit embrace the palate, combined with a barely perceptible hint of spice and marked mineral tones. Soft in the opening, tasty and almost salty in its reminiscence of the sea with acidic energy.

Serve at:

Longevity:

03 - 05 years

Full Bodied and Aged White Wines
