Upon PNP, this 375 ml. was shockingly good. The texture was quite viscous but with a creamy aspect and excellent acid. As expected, the flavors are in the fig, marzipan profile. On nights two and three, the texture felt more syrupy and the sweetness more extreme.

Chianti; 6/22/2018-6/30/2018 (Tuscany): Tasted on site. Concentrated figs and honey smell. Super super sweet. Hard to describe how much sweeter this is than others I have tried. Thick viscous mouthfeel but still a very clean taste. Good acidity and an endless nutty fruit finish. Lovely (in thimble sized quantities).

Dark brown. Honey and caramel. Orange marmalade, molasses. Thick and rich in the mouth, still a good acidic bite and an endless finish. Lovely.

Dark brown, thick and viscous. Smells of prunes, figs. Nuts and brown sugar in the mouth. Extremely sweet. Just enough acid. Remarkable long finish.
