'Occhio di Pernice' bedeutet Auge des Rebhuhns und bezieht sich auf die helle, lachsrote Farbe dieses hell gekelterten Vin Santo aus der roten Rebsorte Prugnolo Gentile. (superiore.de) "The 1996 Vin Santo 'Occhio di Pernice' is made from 100 % Prugnolo Gentile, as the local variety of Sangiovese is called in these parts. It, too, spent 10 years in 50-liter barrels prior to being bottled. The wine gives new meaning to adjectives such as unctuous and opulent which are simply inadequate to describe its sheer richness, concentration and volume. Dried figs, worn-in leather, baking spices, dark chocolate and espresso are just some of the nuances that can be found in this deeply-colored sweet wine. 'Occhio di Pernice' remains one of Italy's most compelling wines, ..." Robert Parker
