Tasting note from from 08.02.2022, Copyright Sebastian Bordthäuser

Thanks to the 1995 regulation of the DOC Vin Santo del Chianti, Il Passito by Corzano e Paterno may no longer be labelled under the name Vin Santo because it falls short of the minimum alcohol content of 13%.

Er besteht aus selektionierten Trebbiano und Malvasia-Trauben, die als Ganztrauben zunächst in der “Vinsantaia” zum trocknen aufgehängt werden. Nach etwa 3 Monaten Reifezeit werden die verschrumpelten Beeren erneut selektiert, und 24 Stunden lang sanft gepresst. Nach dem siebentägigen Dekantieren wird der Most in traditionellen „Caratelli“ auf die Mutterhefe gelegt, die Fässer versiegelt und in der gut durchlüfteten “Vinsantaia” für 13 Jahre ohne jeglichen Eingriff gelagert. Der Il Passito di Corzano wird als IGT Tipica Passito vertrieben.

Colour

Light amber.

Nose

The 2006 Il Passito di Corzano is like a Win-Zip file on the nose. It unpacks, and unpacks, and unpacks... After the volatile acidity has disappeared thanks to large glasses, aromas of dried fruits such as figs and dates emerge. Almonds, roasted hazelnuts and salted caramel are underpinned by toffee, candied orange peel, sultanas and light tobacco.

Mouth

The agile acidity of this ambrosially viscous nectar bundles the lusciously expansive aromas of the initial drink into an equilibrium with high vibration and tension. The power of the dried fruits combines in harmony with the delicate saline notes and citrus oils to create a highly concentrated symphony with an orchestral finish and bacchic length.
