Passito di Pantaleria
Lidl £12.99
Drinker Rating 92


Perfect drinks for Christmas don't come more perfect than this sweet wine from Pantaleria, an island just off the coast of Sicily.

Passito is made using dried grapes, this really intensifies both the sugars and flavours and the grpae in this case is Moscato D'Alessandria, and it's a real grapey grape.

This intensity here is charactersied by a vibrant ornage ppel, marmalade note with Christmas spices sitting just in the background, cinnamon, nutmeg and mace, making this a perfect accompaniment to a mince pie, Christmas cake, Christmas pud and also amazingly blue cheese.

Treat yourself, it's a real indulgence that won't let you down.

Cheers!
