Rocca di Montegrossi’sVin Santo is producedfrom Malvasia Bianca delChianti. It is especially wellsuited to the productionof this kind of wine thanksto its aromatic richness, the thickness of the skinsof the grapes, and theirpropensity to oxidize.The bunches of grapes arehung one by one on netsin a well-ventilated areaunder the rafters. All netshung from rails. The resulting wine is brilliant amber in colour. On the palate it’s velvety, with intense, complex persistent apricot, dried fig, toasted almond, date, caramel and coffee aromas. Thanks to its distinctive freshness anddelicacy it is an excellent meditation wine, though it will also work very well as a dessert wine, with dry confectionary or crème brûlée, and it will also work well with blue cheese orfoie gras.
