A deep amber colour with hints of gold. The aroma is rich and complex, with notes of dried fruits like raisins and figs, toasted nuts, and a touch of caramel. Adding egg yolks contributes to a unique creamy texture and a subtle sweetness that enhances the overall aromatic profile.
The wine is full-bodied and velvety on the palate with a luxurious mouthfeel. A subtle sweetness and a touch of spice complement the flavours of dried fruits, nuts, and caramel. The finish is long and lingering with a warm, nutty aftertaste. This unique wine is often enjoyed as an after-dinner digestif or used in traditional Italian desserts like Tiramisu. It can also be paired with strong cheeses, dried fruits, and nuts.
