“Aestas Siciliae” Moscato Passito 2019 (BIO) dolce
Copper-coloured with light brown reflections. Floral-sweet and complex on the nose. On the palate, its typical Moscato aromas are carried by honey, dried fruit, caramel and a hint of musk. Creamy and dense on the palate with a well-dosed acidity that gives it a lot of freshness, the overall impression for us is that Aestas Passito is a dessert wine that is hard to beat in terms of excitement and specialness and where you can feel with every sip the dedication and certain wine craziness with which it was created.

“Occhio di Pernice” Vin Santo del Chianti Classico DOC 2007 (BIO) dolce
Using the red grape variety Sangiovese, the rosé variant of the Vin Santo, the Occhio di Pernice (Eye of the Partridge), is created. Fascinating bouquet of smoke, honey, caramel and dried apricots. Exotic, full-bodied on the palate with a wonderful balance of freshness and lively acidity. Clean, almost dry finish with a racy aftertaste of dried fruits and spices. Exciting and stimulating! SUPERIORE.DE
"Driven by honey and molasses, the Badia a Coltibuono 2007 Vin Santo del Chianti Classico Occhio di Pernice is a pure beauty. Made with organic fruit, this dessert wine opens to a dark copper color and beautifully intense aromas of dried fruit, fig, honey, brown sugar and maple syrup. There is a vein of heat and warmth there that underlines the sweetness and the ripeness of the fruit." Robert Parker

“VinSanGiusto” Passito di Toscana IGT 2011 (BIO) dolce · in Gift Box
Just 2,024 bottles that have it all: Perhaps the best sweet wine in Italy may not be called "Vin Santo" because its high concentration means it does not reach 12% alcohol. But that is also completely uninteresting, because these aromatic-spicy forest honey notes, this sweet fruit balanced by a fine acidity, and this wonderful spiciness that characterise this wine need no official regulation. It simply tastes delicious. Best with strong cheeses, with desserts - or just take a glass of this "solo" as a dessert. SUPERIORE.DE
"The 2011 Vin San Giusto is somehow remarkably light on its feet for a rich, textured Vin Santo that packs a whopping 410 grams of residual sugar. Ginger, orange peel, spice, dried cherry and tobacco overtones give the Vin San Giusto striking aromatic intensity and nuance. Silky, plush and full of character, the 2011 is a compelling sweet wine to drink over the next 10-15 years." Vinous
"This is an iconic wine with an iconic lineage. The 2011 Vin San Giusto (presented in a 375-milliliter bottle with a 9.5% alcohol content) pours forth with extra thick density and richness. You could almost stick a fork in there and expect it to stand straight. The bouquet is seemingly infinite, starting off with dried fruit and brown sugar and then moving toward earthy aromas with button mushroom. The wine's sweetness is so delicate but powerful at the same time. I suppose that is the magic of this 90-10 blend of Malvasia and Trebbiano: something so simple can in fact be so divine. This vintage shows a little less activity on the bouquet, but a wine this precious can perform differently bottle to bottle. Brown sugar and maple syrup linger on the long finish. The wine is aged in chestnut wood barrels force years." Robert Parker

“VinSanGiusto” Passito di Toscana IGT 2013 (BIO) dolce · in Gift Box
Perhaps the best sweet wine in Italy may not be called "Vin Santo" because it does not reach 12% alcohol due to its high concentration. But that is also completely uninteresting, because these aromatic-spicy forest honey notes, this sweet fruit balanced by a fine acidity, and this wonderful spiciness that characterise this wine need no official regulation.

"The 2013 Vin San Giusto is rich, ample and deeply layered from start to finish. Dark fruit, spice, molasses and leather all build effortlessly. This sumptuous, dense sweet wine delivers the goods and then some. Amazingly, about 40% of the volume is lost because of dehydration over time." Vinous
"An organic blend of 90% Malvasia and 10% Trebbiano, the San Giusto a Rentennano 2013 Vin San Giusto pours slowly and evenly from the bottle. The wine's thickness and syrupy richness recalls brown sugar and molasses. Those sweet flavors are elegantly contrasted against toasted nut and roasted chestnut. The wine's alcohol content is a very approachable 9.5%. This is an almost indestructible sweet wine that will hold decades in your cellar." Robert Parker
