Felsina Vin Santo del Chianti Classico


Amazing dessert wine!
2015 Felsina Vin Santo del Chianti Classico...$55.99 / 375ml

An exquisite Vin Santo, with aromas and flavors of brown butter, caramel, molasses, gingerbread and roasted walnut riding the vibrant structure. Impeccably balanced, with fine complexity and a long, resonant aftertaste. Malvasia, Trebbiano and Sangiovese. Drink now through 2040. 1,000 cases made, 600 cases imported.
Rated 97/100 The Wine Spectator
Pouring forth from a 375-milliliter bottle, the Fèlsina 2015 Vin Santo del Chianti Classico shows a dark amber color with shiny golden highlights. The wine is smooth and creamy in texture but not too viscous. In fact, it falls smoothly over the palate, imparting candied fruit, honey, almond and marron glacé along the way. This sunny vintage gives us a more accessible taste of one Italy's most prestigious dessert wines.
Rated 94/100 The Wine Advocate
