Fonti e Lecceta 2015

Vin Santo del Chianti DOC Occhio di Pernice

The Fonti e Lecetta Vin Santo shows a bright copper dress with garnet reflections.

The nose is refined, with aromas of dried fruit, dates and dehydrated apricot. Notes of sweet spices, chestnut honey herald candied and balsamic nuances.

The palate is soft and enveloping, sweetness and structure coexisting in perfect harmony.

It has infinite depth, concentrating in aromas of prickly pears, dried figs and spices.
