Description

The Vin Santo di Carmignano Occhio di Pernice di Artimino derives from a skilful blend of mainly red berried grapes harvested in the Carmignano area, in the province of Prato.

The bunches of Sangiovese, Canaiolo and Aleatico, with some added Trebbiano Toscano, Malvasia Bianca Lunga and San Colombano, are left to dry on cane racks in the vinsantaia for about 4 months. The grapes are pressed and the must is placed in kegs where it remains to ferment and then refine for at least 4 years.

The result is an amber yellow nectar. The nose is captivated by an intense and complex aroma in which hints of dried figs and walnut husk intertwine, with sensations of candied apricot and almond. The palate is structured and enveloping, perfectly balanced between minerality, sweetness and freshness.

Excellent for accompanying chocolate-based desserts, it goes well with aged and pit cheeses. Superb for meditation.
