Jacopo Poli Sarpa di Poli Grappa di Merlot e Cabernet (70cl)

A grappa from Jacopo Poli, made from Merlot and Cabernet pomace from the area between Bassano del Grappa and the hills of Marostica and Breganze. It is distilled by steam in a discontinuous cycle in small copper stills. The name Sarpa means pomace in Venetian dialect. It is straightforward, simple, authentic and natural, without the harsh, aggressive and oily defects of older grappas. It is transparent, colourless and bright, with herbaceous aromas of freshly cut grass, mint, rose, geranium and violet, plus a vinous note. On the palate it is robust and full of character.
