Wine Enthusiast
Whereas the 2013 showed very exotic perfumes, the 2014 Malvasia is more finely crafted: on the nose, there are subtle floral aromas of jasmine and honeysuckle, but also lychee and nectarine. The grape's natural acidity produces an intense wine, which, coupled with a hint of Muscat, achieves perfect balance on the palate! A wonderful discovery!
