- About this item This delicious wine is coppery gold in colour and exhibits complex and intense aromas of candied fruit and notes of honey, eucalyptus and citrus fruits as well as an intriguing touch of nutmeg and caramel. The palate is dense and rich, packed with dried fruit flavours such as apricot, pineapple and fig, with a delicious sweetness mitigated by a thorn of freshness, excellent balance and a refreshing finish. Malvasia and Trebbiano grapes from Ruffino’s La Solatia and Gretole estates are carefully dried on trellises in well ventilated rooms for about two months. This has the effect of concentrating the sugars in the must and as a result the fermentation, in French oak casks, is slow and long. The wine is then further aged in small oak casks for three years, prior to being blended and bottled. Vin Santo is a viscous, typically sweet dessert wine made in Italy, predominantly in Tuscany. The wine is loved for its intense flavours of hazelnut and caramel. When paired with biscotti, Vin Santo becomes “Cantucci e Vin Santo” which is inarguably Italy’s most famous welcoming tradition. What makes Vin Santo truly special is the natural winemaking process which gives it a unique taste. Ruffino Serelle Vin Santo del Chianti – Italy 1 x 375ml ›See more product details
