Description
 
Producer: Villa Pillo
Vintage: 2001
Region: Toscana
Sub-Region: Vin Santo Del Chianti
Varietal: Trebbiano (80%) Malvasia (20%)

Villa Pillo's Vin Santo is made following the classical rules of Tuscan tradition.  They obtain this wine from the Chianti white grapes, Trebbiano and Malvasia. They select the best grapes and they are left to dry slowly for 5 months.In the drying process, the greater part of water contained by the grapes evaporates and  they have the maximum concentration of sugar. After 5 months the grapes pressed and the little must is left to rest 24 hours. Once the wine has rested, it is put into the "caratelli". They are small casks that are filled only three-fourths of their capacity. The wine is left in them to mature for 4 years.  The caratelli are stored in a "Vinsantaia", where the alternation of seasons, slowly works the miracle of the wine's maturation.
