Giovanni Manetti's Vin Santo del Chianti Classico consists of 50% Malvasia and 50% Sangiovese and was aged for 84 months in small oak barrels. The wine is absolutely stunning - from start to finish - and there are just 1,000 bottles of it.

It shows bright amber reflections that alternate with the same dark brown colour as a polished chestnut shell. Its thick, viscous consistency glides over the smooth surfaces of the glass with the soft, slow movements of maple syrup. The bouquet leaves notes of honey, brown sugar, roasted nuts, rum cake, vanilla, white truffle, candied apricots and moist pipe tobacco firmly etched in the memory. You don't drink this wine. Instead, you sip it and savour every last drop. SUPERIORE.DE

"This slowly unfolds its aromas, with touches of wood smoke, dark chocolate, baked fruit, lavender, bitter honey, and a slightly ferrous note at the back. Luscious and honeyed, it has both depth and intensity, and just the right touch of sprightly acidity. There's a return of great aromatic complexity on the finish. Amazing energy. Deep oloroso shade." Decanter
