VIN SANTO OCCHIO DI PERNICE 1986 0,375 - AVIGNONESI

Deep amber in color, this wine shows elements of dark chocolate, dried figs and candied red fruit underlined by smokey, balsamic notes. Occhio di Pernice is incredibly rich and full on the palate, with hints of juniper berries and typical Mediterranean flora and a lingering, smooth, sweet finish.

98/100
Compelling and complete, this leads off with an aroma of mint, featuring flavors of treacle, toffee, graham cracker and brown butter. Thick and mouthcoating, with a pleasant cloying sensation on the finish. A unique dessert wine.
