Vin Santo del Chianti DOC. Ancient Tuscan tradition. One of those wines that, when they win the heart, have the power to make us travel with our minds. Up and down the gentle hills of Chianti, where woods and vineyards share equally the space. This, in particular, proposed by Azienda Agricola San Benedetto, was born in the hills of San Gimignano, the Manhattan of the Middle Ages, as it is called. Traditional composition, with Trebbiano Toscano and Malvasia del Chianti, to which a percentage of Verdea grapes is added. Vineyards at about 220 metres above sea level, the grapes are harvested by hand towards the end of September. Then begins a long process that first involves slow drying on racks for three months. Then, after concentrating sugars and aromas, they are pressed. The must obtained is left to ferment in small chestnut barrels, where it is then left to mature for at least 4/5 years. Deep golden yellow in colour, the nose is astonishing for its pleasant combination of candied fruit, cinnamon and spice aromas. In the mouth it is pleasantly soft and harmonious, perfect to accompany any good end of meal. Serve with classic cantuccini biscuits.
