COLOR
It has the colour of the sun, golden yellow with sage green glints. Intense and extremely bright, dominates the glass thanks to its visual cleanliness, showing thick and firm legs.

NOSE
On the nose it is a symphony of intense perfumes: honey, dog rose, cinnamon, white elderberry. It closes with a slightly spicy tail, accompanied by a marron glacé-tinged and tobacco leaf finish with a mineral hint that pleasantly tickles the nose. 

TASTE

In the mouth Lieti Conversari is soft and, at the same time, intense and round. In exuberant elegance, in a balance among aromaticity, saline notes and structure, a dance of flavours of honey and arbutus, mango and almond. Great, beautiful, wonderful harmony..

FOOD PAIRING

It is a charismatic wine, capable of any pairing; special for important occasions. It should be enjoyed with strong-tasting cheeses such as Bleu d’Aosta, Blue Stilton, Shropshire or accompanied by strong flavouring risotto.

TASTING NOTES

Golden yellow, intense notes of honey and spices, enveloping and mineral on the palate.
