Lillypilly Fiumara 7 Domenic Blend
[RRP: $26.50]
Region: Riverina, Australia
Style: Fortified Wine
Variety: Blend
Alcohol: 18.5%
Bottle size: 375ml
Tasting Notes: Beautiful tawny colour with rich golden amber on the edge. Aromatic ripe fruit and spice. Velvety texture, luscious, mouth filling and lingering flavours. This wine is made of a rich combination of vintages, some over 25 years old. This wine is a testament to the hard work of Pasquale and Angela Fiumara and their seven sons, in establishing the family owned vineyards and winery. The first release of this rich, soft fortified wine is named
"Domenic Blend" in memory of the eldest Fiumara brother.
THE HERALD (Newcastle) 26/03/08
“...invites the pouring of a second glass, so it's best to
enjoy this clinker fortified at home in your favourite
armchair. Exudes scents of rich fruitcake and hazelnuts.
Succulent raisin flavours hold sway on the front of the
palate and elements of bramble jelly, cinnamon, cloves
and nutty oak chime in on the middle palate. Lingering
lush fruit characters, minty tannins and a whisper of flinty
acid combine at the finish. lt would be great with a King
lsland cheese plate with dried muscatels, quince paste
and poppy seed lavosh.
