Castello di Volpaia's 2019 Vinsanto del Chianti Classico DOC is a traditional Tuscan dessert wine crafted from carefully selected Trebbiano and Malvasia grapes.

Finish: Long and satisfying, with lingering notes of honey and a gentle warmth. Serving Suggestions Temperature: Serve slightly chilled, around 50-55°F (10-13°C), to enhance its aromatic complexity. Food Pairing: Pairs exquisitely with traditional Tuscan desserts like cantucci (almond biscuits), blue cheeses, or enjoyed on its own as a contemplative after-dinner drink. Additional Information Varietal Composition: Trebbiano, Malvasia Bianca del Chianti. Alcohol Content: 13.5% Abv. Aging: Aged for 5 years in small oak barrels, allowing for the development of its complex character.
