This amber-colored vin doux naturel from AOC Rivesaltes is a 50/50 blend of 70-year-old Macabeu and Grenache Gris vines. This delectable sweet wine undergoes over 10 years of aging in 500 L barriques (sans soufre!), and the result in bottle is a lyrical progression of aromas: citrus fruits, candied oranges, cinnamon, tobacco leaf, caramel, honey, gingerbread. 80-100g/L RS.
