Wine tasting:
Sight: Very consistent and deep colour with the typical Passito’s wine tones.
Smell: Powerful, rich in floral perfume (dried violets) and fruity (sour and black cherries jam).
The result is a perfect balance between sweetness and acidity. It’s better to drink it cold, at 11°/13° degrees.
Turan is the perfect wine to serve with cakes, refined pastries, dried fruits, and chocolate. Interesting is the ideal match with matured, herbs and spicy cheese. We can definitely define the Turan as a beautiful meditation wine.
