MOSCATO GRAPPA Italy |
Vintage Assessments Tasting Note |
Producer |
POLI |
Clear and colourless. Attractive, very bright, intense, sweetish, candied, maraschino cherry nose with only a touch of grass. Slightly off dry, medium bodied, attractive, spicy, faintly honeyed, hay-tinged, harmonious, somewhat tangy, ripe maraschino cherry flavours with a lingering, slightly grassy finish. Classy and tasty albeit not inexpensive. The 1998 vintage of this Moscato Grappa was released on August 3, 2002 (150 cases) at $99.95 but not presented for evaluation. |

A Vintage Assessments Explorer's Selection! |
Grappa made from the Moscato (Muscat) grape adds lovely floral notes to the finished spirit. This one, from grappa icon Jacopo Poli, evokes rose and magnolia, along with subtle touches of citrus and sage, all beautifully presented in an air-blown glass bottle. |
