Isole E Olena Vin Santo del Chianti Classico DOC (375ml) 2011 Size::Half Bottle The palate is fleshy with95 POINTS Aldo Fiordelli, James Suckling "Amber color. Complex and evolved, with notes of apricot jam, celery, dried figs, candied orange zest, nail polish and a hint of rancio. Zesty and lifted acidity balances the dense sweetness, with a full body and a long, super savory finish of dried apricots. Not an easy wine, strictly for connoisseurs, yet very good. Drinkable now, but it will last for decades." Paolo De Marchi has used his white grapes only
