CARTA RICETTA STORICA Italy
Vintage Assessments Tasting Note Producer MIRTO SILVIO
Extremely deep intense dark purple colour. Made from macerated Myrtle berries, the nose is very spicy, quite penetrating and almost jammy with bittersweet, cassis-blueberry notes with some caramel notes. Sweet, medium-full bodied, quite viscous, honeyed, spicy, intense, blackberry flavours with a lingering, high acid finish. This Sardinian liqueur has 30% alcohol and a little seems to go a long way.

LCBO Note Status A Vintage Assessments Explorer's Selection!
TASTING NOTE: Rich, complex aromas of dark and blue fruit with herb and spice tones. Smooth and caressing in the mouth with a superbly balanced, delicately articulated sweetness - there is nothing cloying about this at all. Good fruit intensity and depth. A spicy, delicious way to end a meal. The finish is long and oh sooooo good. Chill before serving. (Vintages panel, Jan. 2018) Price $ 43.95
