Ageing Leacock’s St John Dry was transferred to 'estufa' tanks where the wine underwent a cyclic heating and cooling process between 45°C and 50°C over a period of 3 months. After 'estufagem' the wine was aged for three years in American oak casks and then underwent racking and fining before the blend was assembled and bottled.
Consumption Leacock’s St John Dry is fined and does not require decanting. It is excellent as an aperitif but is also exceedingly good with starters, fish dishes and Indian cuisine. It has been bottled when ready for drinking and will keep for several months after opening.
Colour Pale topaz colour with golden highlights.
Aroma Characteristic bouquet of Madeira, light and fresh dried fruits flavours and notes of citrus.
Flavour Dry and fresh flavours of mellow fruit in balance with a firm citrus backbone and a fine finish.
