Vin Santo - Chianti Classico - 2005 (375 ml)
Casa Al Vento Winery - Tuscany
This Vin Santo Chianti Classico D.O.C. is a sweet dessert wine that also stands beautifully on its own as a meditation wine. Produced from old vineyards planted with Malvasia and Trebbiano grapes, it undergoes prolonged aging in small 'caratelli' wood barrels, enhancing its depth and complexity. Available in 0.375 L bottles, it pairs exceptionally well at the end of a meal with almond-based dry desserts, and its flavors are further enhanced when served with aged or blue-veined cheeses and traditional cantucci biscuits.
