Isole e Olena Vin Santo del Chianti Classico 2011 (375ml)
Isole e Olena Vin Santo del Chianti Classico 2011 (375ml)
Description
A brilliant dessert wine, in fact, one of the best.
Mid-deep amber with orange glints. Rich, fudgy, walnut marzipan aromatics, with dried, mixed citrus peel, cooked apricots and layers of Christmas cake spices.
Fully sweet and rich, with cooked apricot and citrus that quickly gives way to Christmas spice, dark chocolate and some polished wood. Brisk acidity just about copes with the sweetness on the front palate, to allow the long, walnut finish to carry through.

Reviews:
Rich, deep and exotically beautiful, the 2011 has so much to offer.
Ten years in small casks yielded a Vin Santo loaded with personality, complexity and character. Orange confit, burnt sugar, dried herbs, spice and caramel are some of the many notes that lift out of the glass. A touch of Petit Manseng (unusual in Vin Santo) helps brighten the acids. If I had to pick only one bottle to demonstrate what Vin Santo is all about, it might very well be Isole e Olena, as it is a real reference-point of both excellence and pedigree.

Can my wine be left if I’m not home?
Yes! However if someone else is accepting the delivery for you, they must be over 18 years of age. Bottega Italia cannot deliver wines to anyone less than 18 years of age. If there is any doubt about the age of the recipient on delivery, our delivery drivers are obliged to request some form of photographic ID. If that recipient is unable to produce appropriate ID then the delivery driver will be unable to leave the wine.
If nobody will be at home, then just make sure when placing your order that you give us explicit instructions that it’s ok to leave the delivery. With "Authority to Leave" deliveries, our couriers will leave the wine in a safe place, where possible at the delivery address. If that’s not possible, the driver will leave a card to advise that the delivery has been will be directed to the nearest Parcel Connect agent.
By providing us with an "Authority To Leave" instruction when placing your order, then you authorise the courier to leave the goods unattended at the delivery address and you accept that once the courier has done so, the complete order has been received.
Can my order be delivered to a P.O. Box?
