2019 Villa Splendida Vin Santo Caratelli (375ml)

Caratelli (Italian for “small wooden kegs”) are small 50-liter barrels used specifically for Vin Santos wine. Vin Santos means “Holy Wine” or “Wine of the Saints” in Italian as it is typically vinified during Easter week and was often served at mass in the 14th century. Our Trebbiano and Malvasia grapes are hand picked during late harvest and then dried in the winery's attic for 2 months before moving to caratelli barrels for 5 years.
