Castellare di Castellina Description
Brilliant amber in color, this wine offers seductive, layered aromas of roasted nuts, dried apricots, dates, toffee, and spice cake. On the palate, it shows incredible balance with flavors of Macadamia nuts, golden raisins, dried figs, and caramel with a lingering, honeyed finish.
Vinous Media: 94 Points
The 2018 Vin Santo del Chianti Classico is a model of delicacy and restraint. Hints of almond, orange zest, spice, tangerine peel and rosewater are all beautifully lifted. Residual sugar is a very modest 90 grams per liter, making this moderately sweet Vin Santo one of the drier versions readers are likely to come across.
