The wine

Vin Santo Tenuta Tre Rose: The sweet soul of Montepulciano

Imagine for a moment the sun-drenched Tuscan hills, and in a glass, the very essence of this land. This Vin Santo from Tenuta Tre Rose, 2018 vintage, is a promise of sweetness and tradition, a well-kept secret that I can't wait to share with you.

The terroir of Montepulciano and the art of Tenuta Tre Rose

We are here in the heart of Montepulciano, a region whose winemaking vocation needs no proof. The Tenuta Tre Rose estate is part of this history, perpetuating ancestral know-how. This Vin Santo is the result of a blend of 70% Malvasia and 30% Trebbiano, emblematic grape varieties that draw their character from this unique terroir.

The magic begins with the vinification method: the grapes undergo an appassimento process, a natural drying that concentrates the sugars and aromas. This is followed by slow fermentation, then a minimum of three years of aging in wooden casks, the caratelli, which give this wine its complexity. To the eye, you will be charmed by its intense amber color. On the nose, notes of honey, almond and dried fruits mingle, evoking a rich and warm bouquet. On the palate, its velvety texture reveals a perfect harmony between sweetness and acidity, with a persistence that invites contemplation.

A delight to share, or to savor alone

This Vin Santo is an invitation to indulgence. I warmly recommend it with dolci secchi, those traditional dry biscuits, or the famous cantucci. It also pairs wonderfully with aged cheeses, where its sweetness will balance the power of the flavors. It is the ideal companion for the end of a meal in good company, or a moment of solitary meditation, curled up in an armchair, letting yourself be carried away by its aromas. Let yourself be tempted by this authentic expression of Tuscany, a wine that will speak to you of tradition and passion.

In Montepulciano, this 2018 Vin Santo owes its concentrated character to the appassimento, followed by at least three years of aging in small caratelli barrels. Save it to accompany cantucci: that's where its malvasia-trebbiano duo comes into its own.
