Wine Expert Note:

This Livio Felluga Picolit is an intensely sweet and powerful Italian dessert wine. Its intense golden yellow color and floral bouquet evoke memories of ripe apricots and honey. Its sweet, full-bodied texture and high alcoholic content make it an ideal accompaniment to desserts such as tiramisu, crème caramel and panna cotta. The finish is long and lingering, with a hint of minerality that lingers on the palate.
