Organoleptic analysis

Translucent amber of good consistency in the glass. A sweet roundup of baroque aromas and sensations reminiscent of carob, dried figs with walnuts, quinces and cloves. On the palate it has a caressing softness, well tempered by a thread of acidity that supports its good structure. Rich aftertaste with a pleasant return of sensations already perceived on the nose and with a pleasantly bitter finish.

Pairings

We recommend pairing with Modica chocolate or the Messina Pignolata with cacao but also ideal for a pleasant and alternative after dinner or for a conversation with friends.
