Respectful of old Tuscan traditions, this wine is made from a meticulous selection of Trebbiano, Malvasia and San Colombano grapes, methodically withered on fruit drying racks. After vinification, Vin Santo ages for over 4 years in partially full casks, stored in the historical attics of Cusona.

Guicciardini Strozzi (two families united by marriage) is one of the oldest producers in Tuscany. Their business boasts over 1000 years of activity, with the earliest testimony to Cusona’s existence dating back to 994 AD. The Guicciardini Strozzi winery produces 22 varieties of wines. Amongst the best known labels is the Vernaccia di San Gimignano, which was produced for the first time by the winery in 1200 and exalted by Dante, Michelangelo and Boccaccio.
