Tasting Notes
"The nose is pretty typical of a high quality, aged grappa. Tar, sandalwood, grilled lemon, raisins, sweet pipe tobacco, and white tea are most apparent. The palate is slightly austere but extremely compelling. Dried dates, candied lemon zest, tobacco, pennies and black tea leaves seduce the taste buds. This deeply satisfying grappa culminates in a very long and dry finish. "
