LCBO Note Status Recommended by Vintage Assessments!
To make this award-winning grappa, Banfi sends the pomace from their exceptional Brunello di Montalcino wines to the Distillerie Bonollo in Veneto for distillation. The Sangiovese character really comes through in this spirit's bright fruitiness and dry cedar tones. It makes an excellent digestive. Price $ 79.95
