The 2004 Malvasia Istriana Dis Cumeris opens with sweet, exotic aromas that lead to layers of intense passion fruit, mango, and subtle earthiness. Despite its weight, the wine is focused on the palate and offers excellent persistence, with a long, resonating finish. This quintessentially Friulian wine will be at its best over the next few years. Anticipated maturity: 2007-2010.
