Origin

MALMANTICO VINSANTO is produced in Italy, a country renowned for its rich tradition in crafting Vinsanto wines. The brand SAN VITO is associated with authentic Italian winemaking heritage.

Variety

This Vinsanto is typically made from a blend of Trebbiano and Malvasia grape varieties, which are traditional for Vinsanto production, contributing to its characteristic aroma and flavor profile.

Production

The grapes are harvested late and then dried to concentrate sugars before fermentation. The wine undergoes a slow fermentation process and is aged in small wooden barrels, often chestnut or oak, for an extended period to develop its complex flavors and amber color.

Tasting notes

  • Appearance: Deep amber to golden brown color.
  • Aroma: Intense bouquet with notes of dried apricot, honey, caramel, and subtle hints of nuts and spices.
  • Palate: Rich and velvety texture with balanced sweetness and acidity, flavors of dried fruits, toffee, and a lingering finish.

Food pairings

  • Pairs excellently with traditional Italian desserts such as cantucci (almond biscuits) and panettone.
  • Complements aged cheeses like Pecorino or Parmigiano-Reggiano.
  • Ideal as a dessert wine served with fruit tarts, dried fruit, or nut-based sweets.
