Montegrossi's delicious Vin Santo del Chianti Classico matures for seven years in traditional Caratelli barrels made from oak, cherry and mulberry wood. It shows a marvellous concentration with thick glycerine that slowly runs down the rim of the glass with thick streaks of amber colour. The flavours are of astonishing intensity with explosive notes of candied fruit, brown sugar, maple syrup, caramel, toffee, butterscotch and dried apricots. With its pleasant and very balanced sweetness, it is a wonderful accompaniment to desserts, foie gras or soft cheeses. SUPERIORE.DE

"Medium, shiny brown colour, very high viscosity, oily in the glass. Intense nose of nougat, chocolate, candied stone fruit, cubeb pepper, cinnamon, caramel. Dense, honey-like on the palate, pleasant interplay of sweetness and acidity, long and sweet finish." Falstaff

"The Vin Santo 2013 is a wild, exotic wine. Dried figs, brown sugar, toffee and exotic floral notes permeate this dark, viscous Vin Santo. Plush and flamboyant to the core, the 2013 is magnificent. harvestshould expect a particularly opulent, tropical style." Vinous

"Complex and seductive, this wine is reminiscent of Tokaji Eszencia in its concentration and sweetness, with a little more agility in its flavour. Dried figs, caramel, chocolate, orange peel and mineral aromas and flavours are intense and blend seamlessly into the soft texture." Wine Spectator
