Structure: medium-bodied, medium acidity, sweet
This is a sweet, oxidative fortified wine built on Grenache Blanc, showing amber color and notes of dried fruit, nuts and caramelized sugar from extended barrel or demijohn aging. It has a warming, alcohol-rich mid palate balanced by nutty, honeyed complexity rather than fresh fruit. A versatile dessert or cheese-pairing wine, best served slightly cool.
