Sapa
Concentrated Cooked Most
T he Sapa is very concentrated cooked must and it has ancient origins, dating back to the time of the Roman Empire. Our Sapa is obtained from the prolonged, slow cooking of the must to reduce it by about 70%. The grapes used come from our vineyards and are, above all, Sangiovese and Trebbiano, without adding anything else. The result is a non-alcoholic, sweet syrup, with a pleasantly bitter aftertaste, with intense aromas of caramel and honey. It is an excellent condiment for cheese, ice cream, strawberries and fruit salads, it is used in sauces and in the preparation of traditional desserts.
