VINSANTO RISERVA 2011

Liquorous dessert wine, classified as a “meditation wine”, the term is used to describe complex wines that are to be sipped and enjoyed in solitude in front of the fireside, during the cold winter months. It has an extraordinarily persistent and intense flavour; its colour ranges from pink to light salmon-orange that we call “occhio di pernice” in Italian (‘partridge’s eye’). Our Reserve is made from Tuscan Malavasia, Trebbiano, Cannaiolo and San Colombano. It is then left to mature for at least five years in “caratelli” made from chestnut or oak.
