LOT

This is the second time we choose a Malvasia from 2005 for a Single Cask. This time, cask 134 stood out for being different from the previous one: more concentration, structure and complex aroma. These characteristics were influenced by the fact that the aging process began in a warmer warehouse (a) and three years later the cask was transferred to a cooler location (d). Aging in two distinct warehouses contributed to a greater balance between acidity and sweetness. In February 2017, 1199 bottles have been filled, all individually numbered.
