White wines
The name MELISSOS is a celtic word that means SWEET, the main characteristic of this wine. Verduzzo friulano is an authoctonous grape variety, simbol of our territory and of our history especially for the production of sweet wines. Our MELISSOS grapes are harvested in the end of September and they are dried for around 5 weeks until the first days of november. In the tradition the grapes are pressed the 1st of November.
This is a very limited production for us because every year we bottle around 250 bottles of 0,5 liters. This is a strong tradition and we want to maintain it also because this dessert wine complete our wine list.
CHARACTERISTICS:
The color is a gold yellow. The flavours are a mix of honey, date palm, dried grapes, dried figues and spicy notes. The taste is sweet with a light tannin sensation that balance the mouth and a good acidity that gives elegance.
FOOD PAIRING:
It’s perfect at the end of a meal with dessert or also paired with aged and blue cheeses. It’s also good like a meditation wine
