Description
In recognition of their innovative premium grappas, Italian President Carlo Ciampi awarded Giannola and Benito Nonino the Leonardo Prize for Italian Quality in December 2003. This spectacular grappa brings together two of northern Italy's best white grapes - Tocai and Malvasia - plus Pinot and distills them into a vibrant after-dinner libation. Each grape brings either its aromatic nature or weight to the package resulting in this award-winning spirit.
