Tasting notes
The 2015 Vin San Giusto is especially fine. In this vintage, the San Giusto Vin Santo is a bit lighter and more floral than it often is, even with its 430 grams of residual sugar. Dried flowers, mint, spice, caramel and orange confit are some of the many aromas and flavors that come to life in this stunning dessert wine.

The organic San Giusto a Rentennano 2015 Vin San Giusto (in a 375-milliliter bottle) opens to a dark chestnut color with brownish and copper highlights. This wine is viscous and quite thick with a contained 9.5% alcohol content. That low alcohol is a hallmark of this special dessert wine, as is its super rich, almost syrupy consistency, which is achieved with careful aging in small oak barrels. It offers aromas of chestnut, brown sugar and maple syrup.
