TASTING NOTE: Jacopo Poli, one of the world's most famous grappa producers today made a special effort to work with muscat. He felt the aromatic grape aromas of this varietal make it distinguishable even to the neophyte. This beautifully perfumed distillate of the pomace of orange blossom muscat and white muscat is distilled in antique copper pot stills. It's clear, colourless and fragrant with a perfumed nose of flowers, fresh hay and summer meadows. Very pretty, elegant with a flowery taste of orange, grapes and blossoms it's distinctive and memorable. Score - 94 (Margaret Swaine, winealign.com, May 7, 2014) |
