Fattoria di Grignano’s Vin Santo is a brilliant amber color. Distinctive bouquet of dried apricot and nuts with balsamic nuances. Delightful palate and full-bodied with a long finish.
Vin Santo wines are known to have been made since at least the Middle Ages, and have become a traditional part of Tuscan life. The origins of the name (literally "Holy wine") are disputed, but most agree it comes from the time when these wines were used for Holy Communion. Traditionally made from grapes left to dry so that the grapes’ natural sugars are more concentrated and then pressed to make amber-colored wines with aromas of apricots and orange blossom, with a nutty, raisin-rich palate.
