Description

What kind of wine it is

Santo Spirito by Frescobaldi is an elegant sweet Tuscan wine, created from a careful blend of Trebbiano and Malvasia Bianca grapes. In the glass, it displays an amber colour, lively and remarkably clear. The bouquet is intense, characterised by notes of honey, dried figs, raisins and hazelnut, enriched by a delicate hint of vanilla. On the palate, it is enveloping, with a rounded entry and a solid texture that leads to a persistent almond finish. A true meditation wine, ideal for ending a meal with great balance.

Where it comes from

Santo Spirito originates in Tuscany, reflecting the historic heritage of the Frescobaldi family, dedicated to viticulture since the 1300s. The vocation of the land gives this wine a pronounced aromatic intensity, typical of the great Italian sweet wines. The careful work in the cellar has shaped a structured product designed to support long ageing. It boasts an extraordinary ageing potential, capable of evolving over time for up to forty years, continually enriching its complex flavour profile.

How it is produced

This fortified wine is born from a rigorous selection of grapes, processed to achieve an enveloping complexity. The meticulous maturation process in barrels stabilises and integrates the aromas of dried fruit and vanilla, ensuring a perfect flavour consistency. To fully enhance its aromatic profile, the optimal serving temperature is 16-18 °C. At the table, it finds its natural pairing with dry pastries, becoming the perfect match for classic almond cantuccini or refined spoon desserts.

History and Curiosities

The Santo Spirito by Marchesi Frescobaldi encapsulates the essence of Tuscany, celebrating a family winemaking tradition dating back to the 1300s. The result of the expertise of oenologist Nicolò D’Afflitto, this fine sweet fortified wine fully expresses the vocation of a historic estate spanning 923 hectares. With exceptional longevity and an ageing potential that can reach up to forty years, it is the ideal choice to accompany the end of a meal. An excellent meditation wine that preserves and evolves its extraordinary historical legacy over time.
