Vinsanto del Chianti Classico – Vignamaggio

A TASTE OF TUSCAN SWEET TRADITION

This traditional Tuscan sweet wine is made from hand-harvested Malvasia Lunga del Chianti and Trebbiano Toscano grapes from the Poggiarelli and Orto vineyards. After a three-month drying period, the grapes are gently pressed and the must ferments and ages for at least four years in small oak barrels (75–100L), followed by six months of bottle aging.

Limited to just 2,500 bottles per year, this is a rare delight best served with traditional Tuscan biscotti, blue cheese, or enjoyed on its own as a meditative wine.

Why try it: because it captures the essence of time-honored Tuscan winemaking in every rich, golden drop.
