Greek Vinsanto is the original incarnation. It is also much sweeter that its Italian counterparts. The grapes for this wine were sun-dried for 10 days, fermented and then aged in barrel for three years. This treatment has produced an amber colour and a beguiling perfume of almonds, raisins, prunes, Seville orange marmalade and liquorice. The finale is long. Serve it well chilled with strong chesses and nuts.
