Caparsa Vin Santo del Chianti Classico 2001
(500ML)

I know this sounds ridiculous, but I like to call Vin Santo the cinnamon doughnut of the dessert wines!
47% Malvasia Bianca
47% Trebbiano
6% Malvasia Nera


Dried on straw mats from September to December 1998. Fermented and aged in caratelli for 6 years before bottling.
2600 bottles produced / 500mls

Method of fermentation: Grapes dried on columns and mats from September to December and successively pressed and fermented/matured in “caratelli” / small barrels for 6 years. Fermentation is spontaneous with indigenous yeast. Unfiltered.

From Paolo: An extremely natural-culture product. The best product of the ancient peasant used in special occasions. To be drink with biscuits (Cantuccini di Prato), cakes or cheese. No limit to mature in bottle.

Come on! What treasures don’t exist in Caparsa’s 16th century house/cellar? The reasons to buy this are too voluminous to list in this already too long email. If you love dessert, honey, Madeira, Oloroso sherry....life on earth, buy one!
