This Vin Santo del Chianti Classico shows a deep amber yellow color and
nuances of amber yellow, moderate transparency. The nose
reveals intense, clean, pleasing and refined aromas that start with hints
of raisin, dried fig and caramel followed by aromas of honey, date, plum
jam, walnut, citrus fruit peel, vanilla, almond and nail polish. The mouth
has good correspondence to the nose, a sweet and round attack, however
balanced by alcohol, good body, intense flavors, pleasing crispness. The
finish is persistent with flavors of raisin, dried fig and caramel. This
Vin Santo del Chianti Classico ferments and ages for 5 years in small oak
barrels. |
