Vin Santo
Historical evidence tells of the existence of Vino Santo as early as the 16th century in the vicinity of Castel Toblino, and it is certain that a Vino Santo Puro was produced
from the Rauten vineyards in Sarche as early as 1825 (diploma Melbourne Australia 1880-1881).
The ancient tradition, masterfully perpetrated up to the Salvetta brothers, comes back to life with the Salvetta Winery: the long and complex process leads to the birth of this
great meditation wine.
Harvested late, in fact, the Nosiola bunches are left to rest in well-ventilated areas on the 'Arele', the racks on which the grapes dry naturally for several months, until they
are pressed during Holy Week, between March and April of the year following the harvest. The wine is then left to ferment and refine for five years in oak barrels and steel,
until bottling.
The result is a sweet wine to be enjoyed at a temperature of 10 - 12 degrees, on its own or with dry desserts. The combination with blue cheeses and foie gras is
exceptional.
The vintages currently being aged are those of the 2014, 2015 and 2016 harvests, while the 2009 and 2011 vintages are on sale.
