Sweet
Poetica Riserva
By Vini Silva, Canavese, Piemonte, Italy
Silva's Caluso Passito Riserva DOCG, 100% Erbaluce di Caluso, aged six years in oak barrels. Apricot, plum and fig, balanced by carob freshness.
Tasting notes
Deep gold with pronounced orange reflections, like a setting sun. Sweet, sunny nose recalling overripe fruit such as apricots, plums and figs, with light notes of liquorice, saffron and sun-dried white figs. Pleasantly viscous on the palate, with fruit from golden apple to mandarin and a carob base that balances the sweetness with freshness.
Pairs well with
Very good with aged cheeses and honey, natural gorgonzola and dry pastries.
