Tasting note

The 40 Altari Vin Santo is characterised by its intense amber colour. It has a distinctive aroma, with notes reminiscent of nuts such as walnuts, hazelnuts and almonds, as well as dried apricots; it also releases interesting notes of fresh fruit and spicy nutmeg. It is wonderfully balanced on the palate, with alternating sensations of softness and freshness.

Vinification

Vinsanto is made with the passito method, where ripe grapes are laid out to dry, which turns the grapes into raisins and concentrates the must. The wine is barrel fermented and aged for 3 years in caratelli (small barrels).

Food Match

A sipping wine, Quaranta Altari accompanies dried fruits and desserts with ease. Always serve in a large, airy glass.
