The 2003 Vin San Giusto boasts a whopping 450 grams of residual sugar. It is a huge, viscous wine literally oozing with dried figs, honey, caramel and sugar. The super-hot year doesn’t seem to have presented the ideal conditions for making a dessert wine in this style. Anticipated maturity: 2011-2015.
San Giusto is a reference-point estate that encapsulates so many of the artisan values that make the best wines of Tuscany so appealing. The Baroncole remains San Giusto’s least consistent wine, but all of the other reds are flying very high these days. The sweet San Giusto is an extreme wine, so it is only natural that some years are better than others.
