Guicciardini Strozzi VIN SANTO San Gimignano
Description: Vin Santo is produced in limited quantities according to a very old traditional method. After careful selection of the malvasia, trebbiano and san colombano grapes, they are left to wither on rush matting until the following Junuary. The grapes are then pressed and the must is stored in small kegs where it is left to age for at least five years. The wine is usually drawn from the kegs during Easter and this is probably the origin of its name (12 x 75 cl)
Price: £198.52

Barone Ricasoli VIN SANTO Chianti Classico
Description: Castello di Brolio is one of the oldest wine producers in the world and is situated in the heart of the Chianti Classico region of Italy. Located in Gaiole in Chianti, it has one of the longest histories of any wine estate in the world, having produced wine since 1141. In 1993, Barone Francesco Ricasoli took back control of the estate, spending millions of dollars replanting vineyards and upgrading the cellars. Today, Brolio is again one of Tuscany's leading wine estates. Using the traditional method of vinification the Malvasia , Canaiolo and Sangiovese grapes selected are hung clusters and left to wither for approximately four months in a ventilated atmosphere. The must obtained is fermented slowly for approximately 2 years, and then aged a further 3 years in the barrel. This traditional method of making Vin Santo has produced a dessert wine with a beautiful deep golden colour with amber hues. The intense and fragrant bouquet leads to a full and lingering taste of almonds and raisins with a great finish. Available in half bottles. (6 x 37.5 cl)
Price: £171.70
