This is a very special and fine wine, that strictly
respects the most ancient traditions. It is only
produced in the years the grapes reach a particular
level of maturation.
The selected collection of Trebbiano and Malvasia
grapes undergoes a long drying on mats. In the first
months of the new year we proceed to the squeezing
and the wine is placed in oak barrels for a aging of
at least three years in vinsantiera, a wine cellar with
special thermal characteristics.
This oenological practice gives our Vin Santo the
unmistakable light amber color and intense light,
with ethereal aromas and flavors. Extraordinary to
accompany desserts and as a meditation wine.
