Nose

To the nose, hints of almonds and toasted hazelnuts.

Palate

Sweet mouth with balanced acidity. Long, complex and velvety aftertaste. A true expression of our territory and tradition.

Growing Conditions

After a mild winter, spring set off with quite rigid temperatures but they gradually rose as the season wore on with peaks over 30°C at the end of May. The heavy spring and winter rains created a good water reserve allowing the plants to regularly carry out all of their growth phases. Despite the strong heat which had characterized the months of July and August, the mid-September rains and the lower temperatures, permitted the phenol ripening to be end.
The Malvasia for the Vinsanto production was gathered in cases at the end of September and left to hang for the partial drying.
