Vinsanto di Montepulciano DOC

History of wine

The beautiful golden clusters laid out on reed mats during the autumn and winter months are an ever-present image in the Tuscan wine imagination; even today, this is the best method to create a wonderful Vinsanto. The clusters of Trebbiano and Malvasia are hand-picked and laid out on the mats. For the drying of the grapes, Fattoria del Cerro has designated the large attic of the 'Podere Argiano,' which, being well-ventilated and with the right humidity, is the best environment to keep them healthy until January, when they are pressed. The wooden barrels preserve the Vinsanto until it develops that load of flavors and aromas that no other dessert wine can achieve.
