From our sommeliers

The Sanct Valentin "Comtess" from San Michele Appiano is a sweet wine passito with a residual sugar of 200 g/l and a good aging potential. It comes from Gewurztraminer grapes harvested just before Christmas, allowing the sugars to concentrate. On the nose, it expresses sweet and intense aromas of dried fruit, nuts, and honey. The taste is sensual and captivating, intensely sweet and pleasantly savory. For after dinner or moments of meditation

The Gewurztraminer Passito Sanct Valentin "Comtess" by San Michele Appiano offers all the pleasure, beauty and elegance of Gewurztraminer that is left to dry naturally on the tree to gather all the sun's rays, even those late autumn, and to focus as possible sugars. The winery San Michele Appiano gives us a natural drying directly in the vineyard, with Gewurztraminer grapes that are left to ripen on the plant until the end of the year; harvesting does not take place in the early fall, but when this season gives way to winter. Only a few days before Christmas, in fact, the grapes are harvested. The long natural withering on the vine we find him in the glass: the color, a nice deep golden, is one of the rays of the autumn sun, while the nose notes that emanate and which surround us are those of the ripe fruit, but also honey. In the mouth the Passito Sanct Valentin "Comtess" by San Michele Appiano is opulent, concentrated, creamy, mellow taste and offers a complexity that has few equals. Perfect as a meditation wine, the "Comtess" by San Michele Appiano is a sweet wine that lends itself well to conclude an intriguing romantic dinner. Sweetness, elegance, spaciousness, smoothness: discover the wonderful raisin San Michele Appiano, the "Comtess".
