Sibona GRAPPA RISERVA IN BOTTI DA SAUTERNES 44% Vol. 0,5l

This special Grappa Reserve had already aged in oak casks for a long period and then had a further passage in Sauternes barrels for some months. These barrels had been previously used to age the Sauternes of prestigious wineries. This particularly innovative method experimented on grappa by Sibona Distillery has proven to be exceptional as regards quality results.
Its exciting, with notes of ripe fruit, honey and acacia blossom bouquet and the rich, fresh and elegant flavour, with candied fruit and oak notes, recalls those of Sauternes.

Raw material: Marc (mainly Moscato and Brachetto), from grapes picked fresh during the harvest and selected by Sibona.
