A sweet wine made from Sangiovese grapes that are hand-picked at peak ripeness.
Tasting Notes
The aroma is intense, complex, with pronounced notes of red fruit, making it resistant and memorable. The taste is balanced, sweet, with good harmony between sweetness and sourness. The wine has a soft, silky finish.
Vineyards
The vineyards are located at an altitude of 350 meters above sea level. Soil is medium texture with low silt content, which promotes good drainage and helps grapes reach perfect maturity. The vines are grown using a cordon cultivation method, with a density of 4,000 vines per hectare.
Production Method
The wine is aged in oak barriques for 8 months, which gives it a unique tree-like note and helps to reveal its complex fragrant profile. After that, the wine is further aged in the bottle.
The production uses spontaneous fermentation with local yeast in steel tanks at controlled temperature for about 15 days. This helps to preserve the natural characteristics of the grape variety and create a wine that reflects the terroir of the region as much as possible.
Food Pairing
Passito is ideal for mature cheeses including blue cheeses, foie gras, and dry desserts, making it a great choice for special occasions and fine dining.
Wine is not just a drink — it is a whole experience. Its taste is influenced by serving temperature, the glass, aeration, and even how you take your first sip.
The right serving temperature is one of the key factors. Red wines 14–18°C, white wines 8–12°C, sparkling wines 6–8°C.
The best choice is a tulip-shaped glass (350–450 ml) with a narrowed top. Always hold the glass by the stem to avoid warming the wine.
