Appellation: Terre di Offida Passerina Passito DOC
Grape variety: 100% Passerina
Winemaking: The long withering in the field results in dehydrated grapes upon harvest with an incredibly high sugar concentration. Fermentation and refining in wood barrels.
Wine tasting: intense golden colour. Ripe, caramelised and candied fruit scents. To the taste it's sweet, warm and persistent. Great structure. Optimally drunk with desserts. A wine for meditation.
