Vanilla, Apple and Lemon Curd

2003 Antinori Muffato
$45.00
Shane’s Notes

We spent Saturday evening in Berkeley. We went to Moe’s used bookstore, had dinner at Top Dog, drank some outstanding expresso and capuccino at Sufficent Grounds and then walked over to a church to watch the last performance of the season of the American Bach Society. The performance was magnificent, and we wanted a night cap when we got home. We decided to drink our Antinori 500 ml Muffato. This muffato was sweet with vanilla, apple and some lemon curd underneath. It was a bit more acidic and closed than the aged muffo we had the other week. Muffos probably need to be aged for at least 5-7 years to hit their peak. Nonetheless, this is a very nice wine even now.
