Col d’Orcia – Pascena – Vendemmia Tardiva 2012 – Moscadello di Montalcino

The nose is fruity, aromatic, complex, elegant and racy. It reveals notes of candied citrus fruit, exotic fruits (kumquante, discreet notes of passion fruit) and white flowers (honeysuckle…) associated with a hint of lychee, candied pear, slight notes of nuts, dried fruits (pineapple, orange) as well as a discreet hint of tea and a very discreet hint of honey. The wine needs time to open. The palate is fruity, fine, complex, fresh, fluid, quite gourmande and offers elegance and a beautiful fat. On the palate, this wine expresses slight notes of dried citrus, wheat, peach and pear in syrup combined with touches of pineapple in syrup, nuts / almond as well as a slight note of honey and spices on the finish. Good length and beautiful persistence. On the aftertaste there are slight notes of walnut.
