A pride of Tuscany—that's the best way to describe Villa Trasqua Trasanto. It's no wonder this star wine tops many a menu. A sensation you can't get enough of. The winery is located in central Tuscany, about an hour south of Florence. Villa Trasqua Trasanto is made from the Sangiovese grape, a native grape that has become incredibly popular worldwide. After being harvested by hand and vinified, the wine is aged in oak barrels. It remains in Villa Trasqua's cellars for a full 36 months. The result is guaranteed to be stunning.
It's certainly a discovery. Because when you drink Villa Trasqua Trasanto for the first time, you'll feel happy, almost euphoric. What a beautiful glass! And savor it thoroughly, because this dessert wine is only produced sporadically. Trasanto is only made when the harvest is deemed good enough. The intense golden color in the glass is already elegant. Your nose is pampered by a broad bouquet. You'll recognize honey, exotic fruit, and prunes. Poke your nose into the glass of Villa Trasqua Trasanto again and you'll discover caramel, nuts, and raisins. The taste is sweet, but never cloying. Notes of apricots, prunes, and caramel alternate across your taste buds. Be a true Italian and enjoy Cantucinni, the delicacy from Prato, Northern Tuscany, alongside Villa Trasqua Trasanto.
