Kabola Amfora Malvazija

Available soon at LCBO online and for Private Order
 
A truly unique wine - an organic Malvazija Istarska macerated in amforae.
 
The wine produced in amphorae is the crown of Kabola's work. Nature and earth have endowed us with an entirely new dimension in Malvazija.  Prolonged fermentation in amphorae and aging without removing the marc and the lees until late spring bring out its nobility. 
 
This wine features a wonderful straw-yellow colour with a golden sheen. It is crystal clear and full-bodied. The bouquet opens with notes of quince compote, followed by dry fern, star anise, vanilla and herbs. This wine is dry, retains a crisp freshness, mild tannins, excellent minerality and full body. This is a wonderfully balanced wine with an intense flavour and a long finish. It is harmonious and flavourful with notes of butter, ripe peach and bitter almond in the aftertaste.
