Description
"This innovative Marsala was first introduced in 1985 and utilises modern white winemaking technology (vinification in temperature-controlled stainless steel vats; ageing in topped-up oak barrels to minimise oxidation) to produce a more expressive, clean and crisp style of Marsala. Aromas of demerara, burnt orange peel, nuts and candied citrus lead to a palate that's very precise, vertical and fresh. It's easy to miss the subtle lime and white flower notes up front racing past as they usher in concentrated yet delicate and lacy stone fruits, nuts and citrus peel. There's even a touch of the exotic, with hints of mango and papaya emerging on the long, breezy finish. 80g/l residual sugar." - 96 points, James Button
"Dreamy is the word that comes to mind as the 2018 Vigna la Miccia Marsala Superiore Oro wafts up with a decadent blend of roasted almonds and hazelnuts, complicated by gingery spice and baked peaches. This opens with a pretty inner sweetness and oily textures that are perfectly offset by notes of spiced citrus, cloves, cedar and a bitter tinge of coffee grounds. It cleans up beautifully, ridiculously long and staining yet still fresh, leaving hints of cocoa and butterscotch to linger on the finish." - Eric Guido
