Description:
Avignonesi is the leading estate in Montepulciano and their
world class Vin Santo is the most sought after in Tuscany
and Italy.The grapes are picked in September and dried on
straw mats for 6 months. The wine is fermented very
slowly before being aged for 8 to 9 years in caratelli
and then bottled for 12 months prior to release.
The wine is deep amber in colour with an intense bouquet
of dried apricots, spice and vanilla. On the palate it
is unctuous, rich and full bodied with incredible length and
acidity.
The wine should be served in a wide glass at just below
room temperature.
