The Tasting
A guided note in three moments, by our curators

Appearance & Nose
01The Vin Santo Occhio di Pernice from Tuscany, despite being a red type, stands out for its uniqueness, a result of regulations that define its production with meticulous care. In the glass, it presents a hue reminiscent of dark amber, deep and inviting. On the nose, it offers a complex bouquet of dried fruit, dates, and honeyed notes, with a hint of sweet spices that enhances its intensity.
