"Castello di Brolio" Vin Santo
Vin Santo del Chianti Classico DOC

TASTING NOTES: Amber yellow colour with gold reflections. The nose offers intense aromas of orange and apricot jam with hints of honey, chestnut purée, almonds. The palate is reminiscent of toasted almonds,  amaretto,  nuts and dried figs. Generous white wine with a persistent finish. TECHNICAL NOTES: The grapes destined for Vin Santo are gathered late in the harvest, at the point at which the sugar content is high enough to sustain the long ageing process that this wine undergoes. The bunches are hung and left to dry partially for several months. The must obtained from light crushing ferments slowly and is then placed in 225-litre half-barriques of oak.
