Review and Tasting

Sampled on 25/08/2025

Appearance:

Clear, deep amber.

Aroma:

Sherry soaked raisiny fruit cake, brioche and orange zest with roasted nuts, chocolate and nutmeg.

Taste:

Dry oak tannins, honeyed sherry, dried fruit, fruit cake, buttery vanilla, toasted almonds and baking spices.

Aftertaste:

Raisiny nutty finish with lingering dry, faintly smoky toasted oak.

Overall:

Grappa's answer to a good sherry aged single malt whisky and, given its grape base, arguably more appropriate after a wine-fuelled dinner.
