Score: ✧✧✧✧✭ |
This grappa shows a pale straw yellow color, crystalline. The nose reveals
intense, clean, pleasing and refined aromas of licorice, honey, vanilla,
plum, violet, hazelnut, black cherry and chocolate, with almost
imperceptible alcohol pungency. In the mouth has intense flavors, with
perceptible alcohol pungency and which tends to dissolve rapidly, good
correspondence to the nose, balanced sweetness, pleasing smoothness. The
finish is persistent with flavors of honey, hazelnut, plum and licorice. A
well made grappa produced with discontinuous distillation at very low steam
pressure. It ages for more than 24 months in cask. |
