This grappa shows a brilliant amber yellow color, limpid and colorless. The
nose reveals intense, clean, pleasing and refined aromas of prune, dried
fig, licorice, star anise, black cherry, honey, tobacco, hazelnut, nutmeg,
cocoa and white pepper, with almost imperceptible alcohol pungency. In the
mouth has intense flavors with perceptible alcohol pungency which tends to
dissolve rapidly, pleasing smoothness, balanced sweet hint, agreeable. The
finish is persistent with flavors of prune, hazelnut and dried fig. This
grappa is produced with the double distillation system and it is aged in
barrique. |

Dopo averne sentito parlare tanto, ho acquistato una bottiglia di questa grappa e l'abbiamo provata una sera a cena con degli amici.
Certamente un buon prodotto ma, forse, ci saremmo aspettati qualcosa di più. Comunque una bella grappa passata in legno con buoni profumi, liquirizia e fico secco su tutti, con una bella sensazione rotonda in bocca.
