Consumption Room temperature, after meal
A distillate that preserves the fresh, floral character of Brachetto, softened by a finish in sherry casks that lends it a warm weave of dry and spicy notes. On first approach a pleasant aromatic sweetness emerges, followed by ripe red fruit and a hint of toasted nuts that never becomes excessive: the sip is rounded, with a touch of residual sweetness well balanced by a clean mid-palate. The structure is balanced, with a progression that leads to a pleasant, slightly bitter finish where the sherry wood adds depth without overpowering.

It lends itself to moments of after-dinner contemplation, but also pairs excellently with red-fruit tarts, dark chocolate and mild blue cheeses; serve slightly chilled or at room temperature in large glasses to appreciate its evolution.
