Discover the grape variety: Malvoisie de Lipari

Intense and candied passito dessert wines with an amber golden robe, a dense and unctuous palate, with signature aromas of dried fruits (dried apricot, fig), honey, white flowers (orange blossom), candied citrus and balsamic notes. A legendary Aeolian profile with very great length. The absolute star of the Malvasia delle Lipari DOC, one of the great Mediterranean dessert wines. French synonym for Malvasia di Lipari, native Italian white grape from the Aeolian Islands.
