Vin Santo
This unfortified sweet wine is particular to our region and made in the most traditional ways from a blend of Trebbiano, Malvasia and Sangiovese. The wine spends a minimum of 5 years in small casks and the production can only be limited. It has a deep amber colour and a complex nose of peaches, apricots and tropical fruit as well as honey and roasted nuts. It is full bodied, with a chewy texture and very long finish. Cellaring potential: more than 20 years in the best vintages.
