Vin Santo del Chianti D.O.C.

38,95

Like Dr. Jekyll and Mr. Hide Trebbiano has two faces. The first is that one we see in the white wine: simplicity, freshness and delicacy. The second is that one we see in the Vin Santo: strenght, richness, complexity. And it is really in the Vin Santo that Trebbiano expresses the maximum of its potentialities. Often accompanied by Malvasia and San Colombano it is able to create a unique wine. Of amber color with tones that go from honey to caramel it is a wine which allows us to do many pairings also special. Excellent with dry patisserie according to the most ancient tradition, it is an excellent partner for not too much aged cheeses and it accompanies with pleasant surprise even the classic small slices of grilled bread with chicken livers.
