About this bottle
Crafted in the sun-kissed hills of Castelnuovo Berardenga, Tuscany, Vallepicciola Vinsanto is a treasured expression of Italy’s centuries-old passito tradition. Hand-selected Trebbiano and Malvasia grapes are laid on straw mats after harvest, concentrating sugars and aromas before a slow, oxidative aging of more than three years in small caratelli barrels. The result, bottled here in an elegant 375 mL format, pours a burnished amber that clings to the glass.
On the nose, luxuriant scents of dried apricot, orange peel, and fig mingle with notes of acacia honey, toasted almond, and a whisper of warm baking spice. The palate is velvety yet vibrant, balancing rich sweetness with a lively spine of acidity that keeps each sip lifted. Layers of caramel, candied citrus, and hazelnut glide toward a lingering, gently nutty finish, making this Vinsanto an unforgettable companion to blue cheese, almond biscotti, or a contemplative evening pour.

The Long Island Wine & Spirit Merchant TeamTasting notes
Nose
Dried apricot and fig rise first, then honey and a toasted almond note, with faint orange peel threading through the amber sweetness.
Palate
Full and syrupy in texture, sweet but held in check by bright acidity. Dried fruit and honey lead, toasted almond and a hint of caramel come through on the mid palate.
Finish
Long and warm, lingering with caramel and orange peel, the sweetness fading slowly and cleanly.
How to serve and what to pour it with
Serve lightly chilled, around 55 degrees, in a small dessert wine glass or a copita, poured in modest two ounce measures since the sweetness is concentrated. No ice, it dilutes the acidity that keeps this balanced. A quick decant opens the almond and caramel notes. Pair it as the meal's close rather than alongside a heavy dessert.
