LCBO Note Status Recommended by Vintage Assessments!
Nonino was the first producer to distill pomace and fresh fruit at harvest time, and among the first to distill strictly from fresh juice to make their unique grappas. It is the latter technique that allows this Moscato spirit to retain much of the aromatic richness for which the grape is known. Chill this and serve as a digestif, and experience why Nonino is synonymous with the absolute pinnacle of quality grappa production. Price $ 57.95
