Italy have several different kind of sweet wines and one is the vino liquoroso, which is a fortified wine. In which alcohol is wine with an added distilled beverage (normally distilled wine, brandy) which stops the fermentation and leaves the wine sweet. I had the chance to try a bottle of Santo Sanrorum from Lastra a Signa near Prato and Florence in Tuscany.
The nose of the wine is good, you can feel the sweetness from the wine and also the smell of the red wine. The colour is dark ruby. The taste is a bit peppery and harsh. Maybe a some tannins in it? Decent wine but I feel a bit one dimensional but the price tag is probably cheap.
