Following the Tuscan tradition for producing Vinsanto, this natural dry dessert wine comes from the late harvest of selected Trebbiano and Malvasia grapes from the Podere Casale I° vineyard, hand picked and slowly dehydrated naturally. The resulting must then is put in different types of oak and cherry barrels where it is left to age for at least four years. Before being bottled, a careful selection of the best barrels is done.
