“Fattoria Belvedere” Chianti Colli Senesi wine is characterised by a lively, ruby-red colour; and an intense, winy bouquet with traces of violet; its has a dry, harmonious, sapid, slightly tannic taste, lively and full.

The Fattoria Belvedere WHITE WINE is produced with Tuscan Trebbiano and Chianti Malvasia grapes, harvested at a good point of ripeness and processed with a longer maceration of the skins.
The result is a straw-yellow wine with a characteristic winy bouquet, a very fresh, dry, harmonious and mellow taste and a slightly bitterish aftertaste.
Alcoholic strength is around 11.5°.
This wine is to be served young, with hors d’oeuvres, pasta with vegetable dressings, soups, and vegetables. Excellent with omelettes and fried food in general, it is worth a try with Tuscan cold cuts.

VIN SANTO is one of the most significant products of the Tuscan wine tradition, as a wine with this name has been produced since the middle of the 14th century.
Vin Santo has always been the wine of hospitality and friendship, which was never missing in the houses of nobility and farmers alike; a wine to be drunk at any time of day, although preferred at the end of a meal.
Today it is still produced according to the original method: from the choice of the best bunches of grapes, to drying on mats or grates, followed by a long period of ageing in small wooden barrels known as “caratelli”.
The Vin Santo of Fattoria Belvedere is made with Malvasia del Chianti and Trebbiano Toscano grapes withered on grates. A minimum of four years in the barrel is followed by another year in glass demijohns before bottling.
It has a deep amber colour, a warmly intense perfume and a sweet, smooth, velvety, warm and round flavour. The alcohol content is approximately 16°.
This wine is traditionally served at the end of a meal with dry pastries, cantuccini, jam tarts and traditional Sienna patisserie.
