Cos Zibibbo in Pithos

A top Muscat

Very unexpected but totally successful this muscat shows the power of amphora to improve the taste and maturity of grapes.

Good but still developing

As all Cos wines, the Zibibbo in Pithos is very attractive, with white fruit, preserved lemon and marzipan flavours. The aroma is truly enticing too, echoing the plate, but the mid-palate is still filling up and surely will be even better in a couple of years.

A small masterpiece

This wine was even better than I imagined, and I am a COS fan. Just mildly tannic from partial contact with the skins, it bursts with flavours of tangerine, peach, marzipan and toasted almonds. Despite its amphorae purity and dryness, it manages to be also creamy but chalky at the same time. It will age into something even more beautiful. Don't miss it.

Delicious

A fresh lively expression of what is fast becoming one of my favourite white grapes. What COS, Nino Barraco and Bini can do with this apparently humble grape is extraordinary.

Absolutely fantastic!

Golden colour vibrant and shining. Opens up with exotic fruits, almonds and nice finish. Try it, it's fabulous! Just buy it.
