Description
Livio Felluga Picolit 2015 375ml / Half Bottle
The color is an intense golden yellow. The nose is complex, captivating, and ripe with sweet sensations; it has notes of Calla lily, white rose blossoms, ginger, dates, quince jelly, trifle, sultana grapes, dried figs and white cherry. The palate is rich, full, persistent and lasting; the powerful tastes of honeycomb, a fruit blend of apricot, syrup and yellow peach, layered with hints of cream and crème brûlée. These flavors fade into an elegant, sapid vanilla ice cream finish. Superb as a meditation wine. Pairs beautifully with full-flavored, tangy and blue cheeses. Picolit is also a fine complement to pastries, and of course outstanding with foie gras. Best served between 54°F and 57°F.
Critical Acclaim
93 Vinous
The 2015 Picolit entices with a heady bouquet of grilled pineapple, sour melon, candied ginger and an enriching note of brown spice. This is silky and weighty in feel, with a creamy display of ripe tropical and orchard fruits and sweet herbs, all kept in perfect balance by bright acidity. Spiced Christmas cookie, custard, Madagascar vanilla, peach preserves go on and on for well over a minute. This is decadence in a glass.
