Grappa Riserva 'Vendemmia' Nonino 18 Mesi

A warm and reassuring sip that embraces the palate with harmonious and intense sensations, where spices take center stage in the tasting experience. The art of distillation is something that only a few can showcase flawlessly: among these, Nonino stands out, who with this Grappa Riserva "Vendemmia" combines the flavors of three grapes cultivated in Friuli Venezia Giulia in a label whose softness strikes immediately. Nonino, a Friulian reality founded at the end of the nineteenth century, confirms itself as one of the symbols of excellence and Italian tradition in the world, continuing, with products like "Vendemmia", to celebrate its own myth.

The Nonino distillery produces this Grappa Riserva "Vendemmia" starting from a careful selection of fresh pomace from Merlot, Cabernet Sauvignon, and Refosco dal Peduncolo Rosso, belonging to the same harvest. The distillation process occurs by steam according to the discontinuous method, with the cutting of the head and tail, using ancient copper stills. At the end of the processing, the Grappa is rested in barriques and small barrels that in some cases contained Sherry, for a minimum period of 18 months.

The Grappa Riserva "Vendemmia" by Nonino presents itself in the glass with a slightly amber color, characterized by subtle reflections tending towards gold. The nose is fascinating, organized around a bouquet of soft and enveloping aromas, where the notes of sweet spices are colored by touches of resin and dried fruit. On the palate, it has excellent body, warm, with a sip that is nothing short of velvety, making the drink almost material. A bottle of high artisanal value, to be sipped in the company of a good read after dinner, or why not, also paired with an intense Cuban cigar.
