Critic reviews
Critic reviews
James Suckling – "Amber color. Complex and evolved, with notes of apricot jam, celery, dried figs, candied orange zest, nail polish and a hint of rancio. Zesty and lifted acidity balances the dense sweetness, with a full body and a long, super-savory finish of dried apricots. Not an easy wine, strictly for connoisseurs, yet very good. Drinkable now, but it will last for decades."

Paolo De Marchi has used his white grapes only for Vin Santo since 1976. Grapes are dried for up to five months before pressing and fermentation and ageing last for eight years in 'caratelli' (small barrels) on the 'madre' or starter culture.
