|
| Distilled from grape skins of one of Italy's most revered wines, Sassicaia. A previous bottling of this unique spirit was described by Gord Stimmell as the best grappa he'd ever tasted. Look for aromas of jasmine, honey and clover, and a gently spicy character on the palate. It's a must-have for serious grappa fans and collectors of Sassicaia. |
