Producer details
Vin Santo “Occhio di Pernice” is a jewel born from the best Tuscan tradition.
Once harvested, the grapes are typically hung in well-ventilated places and
pressed only when they reach the right level of dryness.

In 2016, an erratic winter and spring gave way to a summer and an autumn
characterized by high temperatures, good weather, and major daily temperature
ranges which allowed for an optimal ripening of the grapes, thus resulting in
exceptional wines.
