Tasting notes

Brownish colour. Pretty nose with hints of raisins, figs, botrytis. Very powerful and sweet wine in the mouth. Fruity style. Quite mature and ready. Raisins, figs and caramel in the fruit. Low acids and a long taste with hints of caramel. High alcohol, but balancing nicely. This is very good for the price. Drink well now, can probably age a long time.

A non-vintage passito di pantelleria I have had resting in my cellar for 8 years. Same bottling date as the previous bottle. Brown/copper colour. Fine nose. Quite muscaty with hints of raisins, candied lemon-peel, spices, caramel. Powerful and a little fat style in the mouth. Sweet and concentrated. Lots of fruit. Quite monolithic and without any depth, but a little nice aged fruit. Decent acidity and good length. Some grapefruit-bitterness in the finish. Good for it's rather low price.
