(90% viura and 10% malvasia, barrel-fermented and aged in new French barriques for 14 months): Pale gold. Deep poached pear and peach aromas are brightened by ginger and white flowers. Powerful candied lemon and orchard fruit flavors stain the palate and gain spiciness with air, picking up honeysuckle and anise qualities. Shows a suave blend of richness and vivacity on the long, chewy finish.
Green-gold color. Powerful, smoky and leesy, with dense orange, poached pear, baked apple and oak spice aromas. Thick, creamy and suave, the potent orange and pear flavors strongly accented by leesy oak spices and vanilla. Very deep and long on the finish, showing a clinging, oily quality. This needs serious, rich food.
