Avignonesi Occhio di Pernice Vin Santo di Montepulciano 1998 0,375L

The Avignonesi Occhio di Pernice Vin Santo di Montepulciano 1998 is a rare and exquisite dessert wine from Tuscany, Italy. Made primarily from Sangiovese grapes, this Vin Santo di Montepulciano follows a centuries-old winemaking tradition. The grapes undergo a long appassimento (drying) process before fermentation in small oak barrels, where the wine matures for over a decade, developing exceptional complexity.

In the glass, it presents a deep amber hue with mahogany reflections. The nose is intensely aromatic, revealing layers of dried figs, caramelized nuts, honey, dates, and exotic spices. On the palate, it is velvety, rich, and opulent, with a perfect balance between sweetness and acidity, leading to an incredibly long and lingering finish with notes of toffee, roasted coffee, and dried fruit.

This wine is a true masterpiece of patience and craftsmanship, ideal for pairing with blue cheeses, dark chocolate, or simply enjoyed on its own as a meditation wine.
