Avignonesi Vin Santo di Montepulciano Occhio di Pernice 0.375L 2010

"This wine has already aged for over a decade when it is launched on the market, yet it has an incredible capacity to refine further in the bottle without altering its unique characteristics." Ashleigh Saymour, oenologist.

Bouquet

Rich and concentrated with enveloping aromas of Mediterranean herbs, citron, plums, fruit cake, star anise and a long-lingering, nutty finish. This sweet wine reveals new, surprising sensory experiences with every sip.

Flavour

It is a wine suitable for long ageing in the bottle.

Pairing

Cheese
