One of the most fabled sweet wines on Earth, and one of the rarest expressions of it: Occhio di Pernice ("eye of the partridge") is Avignonesi's Vin Santo made from Sangiovese rather than the usual white grapes, giving it a deep amber-mahogany hue. Grapes are dried on mats for months, then fermented and aged for roughly a decade in tiny sealed caratelli with the native "madre" yeast, with more than half the precious liquid lost to evaporation along the way. This 1985 is now four decades old and from a private collection, so expect a fully mature, concentrated wine of remarkable complexity. Pour small; it goes a long way.
