Description

The Vin Santo del Chianti DOCG of Quaranta Altari, by Frescobaldi, is born in the heart of the traditional Tuscan territory from selected grapes of Trebbiano and Malvasia. Vinified with meticulous care, this sweet wine stands out for a patient aging in oak barrels, which imparts depth and complexity to the aromas.

In appearance, it presents an intense amber color, a prelude to a rich and enveloping bouquet, where notes of honey, dried apricot, and candied fruit intertwine with delicate hints of sweet spices and toasted almond. On the palate it is soft and elegant, with a harmonious balance between sweetness and acidity, which enhances its persistence and refinement.

Perfect as a meditation wine, it pairs splendidly with traditional Tuscan desserts or blue cheeses, offering an authentic and enveloping experience, a pure expression of the Chianti terroir.
