Sweet apply pie with a sip of grapefruit juice. This old blend of Malvasia and Trebiano is competing with tawny Porto wine or dry sherry, in my opinion it is more drinkable with less alcohol and a hint of dryness.

Browned butter, caramel, toasted pecans. Evaporates on the palette leaving diaphanous notes of caramelized buttery joy. A Chianti masquerading as a sherry. One of the most delicious wines, or liquids for that matter, I've ever tasted. First had from the winery in Tuscany. Will always be a favorite. 2005 vintage

Nutty, toasted almond, honeysuckle, dried apricot, dried yellow raisin. Slight oxydized quality. Went well with Ai Fiori's Mousse al Gianduja.

Once again delectable gets it wrong when I take the the photo. If they never correct it, know that I am rating a vin santo that is excellent.
