Incanto betekenend vrij vertaald (uit het Italiaans) betovering. En betoveren doen de wijnen van medi valley winery in deze lijn!!! Zeker wanneer de inheemse druivensoort Mavrud aan de basis staat. Verrassende en originele Mavrud wijn die 10 maanden rijping op barriques heeft ondergaan waardoor de betovering compleet is. De kracht van de wijn is daardoor verpakt in fluweel waarbij de lengte ongekend is. In zowel geur als smaak blijven o.a zwart fruit, cacao, rozijnen, vanille, koffie, cederhout en specerijen (kaneel) elkaar aanvullen. Eigenlijk zijn er geen woorden voor en is slechts een proefondervindelijke ervaring op zijn plaats! DOEN
