Dreamy is the word that comes to mind as the 2018 Vigna la Miccia Marsala Superiore Oro wafts up with a decadent blend of roasted almonds and hazelnuts, complicated by gingery spice and baked peaches. This opens with a pretty inner sweetness and oily textures that are perfectly offset by notes of spiced citrus, cloves, cedar and a bitter tinge of coffee grounds. It cleans up beautifully, ridiculously long and staining yet still fresh, leaving hints of cocoa and butterscotch to linger on the finish. (Eric Guido, Vinous, June 2024)

Quite light ruby with wide pink rim . Very intense red cherry , spiced strawberry, raspberry , rose petals , dried Provençal herbs and crushed rocks . On the palate lovely sweet red fruits ; those spiced cherry , strawberry jam and raspberry present on the nose . Herbal notes and a hint of liquorice . Very elegant and refined , with good acidity and fine , polished sweet , but noticeable, tannins . Good length , with that saline tinge at the end . Very moreish even at this stage , young and fresh with balanced alcohol (I would serve this cool however ) . Probably will improve over the next 5 years and last a further 5-8. On this showing a step ahead of the 2020. — 7 months ago

Had this for our anniversary! New fave. Can’t believe I ever thought I didn’t like Italian wine. Full body, tells a story. Slightly tannic. Blackberry, clay pot. Really really good value for a low splurge. — 6 days ago
