Territory and wine style
This Vin Santo del Chianti Classico DOC is born in the heart of Tuscany from Malvasia and Trebbiano Toscano grapes, cultivated between 400 and 450 meters above sea level on soils rich in clay, limestone, and sandstone. The denomination expresses a type deeply rooted in the culture of Chianti, where the drying of the grapes and the slow evolution of the wine in chestnut and oak barrels contribute to defining a unique style. The result is a sweet, complex, and enveloping wine, but supported by a freshness that preserves its balance and drinkability.
Tasting notes
In the glass, it presents an intense amber color that is bright. The aromatic profile typically recalls honey and dried fruit, with sensations of caramel and spices that anticipate an intense and satisfying palate. On the palate, the Vin Santo del Chianti Classico DOC 2012 is distinctly sweet, soft, and enveloping, but finds support in a good acidity that lengthens the sip and balances its richness. The finish is persistent, elegant, and consistent with its nature as a dessert wine.

It also pairs very well with blue-veined and aged cheeses with a strong character, where the sweetness of the wine creates a harmonious contrast.
