3rd Festival of Passito of Cinque Terre.
This sweet wine is produced every year in a very limited edition. It is the result of a careful selection of grapes of the Cinque Terre DOC that are left to dry for 2 months in the shade in a well ventilated place. Then the grapes are destemmed and gently pressed. The shells are separated from the must.
This is how a delicious Ligurian sweet wine is produced. The Sciacchetrà DOC is golden yellow with amber reflections. It is bright, dense and lively. The nose is very intense and pleasant with notes of honey. The palate has a complex structure with a good fresh and full-bodied character. The finish is long lasting with hints of almond.
The Sciacchetrà is to be enjoyed young within 3 to 5 years after the harvest. It is suitable as a digestive or wit pastries as Canestrelli or Pandolce.
If the wine is matured for longer, it's a good meditation wine. Serve in this case, cooled to 10 ° C.
