Tasting notes

Intense amber color with golden yellow reflections. On the nose it releases aromas of cocoa, coffee, vanilla and nuts, with fruity nuances of morello cherry, blackcurrant and red fruit. The taste is persistent and soft with toasted notes of bread crust, almond, spices, cocoa, walnut husk and coffee.

Pairings

Try it in combination with dark chocolate, sbrisolona cake and mature cheeses.

Production method

After having scrupulously selected the best grapes, a slow distillation follows in discontinuous cycle copper stills, typical of Trentino. This phase, followed by the master distiller who cuts the head and tail, is essential to preserve the precious characteristics and aromas of the vine. After distillation, the grappa rests in stainless steel for six months, before being reduced in alcohol content with spring water from Trentino and then aged for 3 years in oak barriques, reaching a more complex and enveloping character.
