Grappa Barricata - Mazzetti (70cl)

This barricata grappa by Mazzetti has a mature and balanced aromatic profile, supported by a colour shading towards light amber. The nose brings toasted wood, vanilla and dried fruit, with a trace of sweet spices that does not overpower the distilled base. The palate is full and round: the warmth is well integrated, the texture soft and slightly oily, with good persistence that reveals structure without aggression. The finish recalls toasted almond and a light smoky note, making the whole harmonious. It is best appreciated in a tasting glass at just-cool temperature, and pairs well with dark chocolate, dry pastries or aged cheeses. The boxed presentation also makes it a refined gift.
