Vin Santo DOC 0,375 l 2011 - Castello Pomino

The Pomino Vinsanto DOC by Castello Pomino by Frescobaldi is intensely amber-coloured with red-gold reflections. The nose reveals a bouquet of sweet notes, from creamy caramel and honey to spiced cakes, with distinct hints of vanilla and nutmeg and a clear alcoholic note. Elegance and warmth surprise on the palate, with a soft taste and fresh, lively acidity that is still present even after years of storage. Long and persistent in the finish, with a wonderful aftertaste of roasted hazelnuts and nutshells.
