The Grappa A.D.Altavilla 10Y Riserva Cl.70 - Wood represents an excellence in the realm of Italian spirits, championing the long distilling tradition of our country. Produced by the Altavilla distillery, this precious distillate from grape pomace has been aged for 10 years in wooden barrels, a process that enhances its aromatic complexity and velvety body.

The Grappa A.D.Altavilla 10Y Riserva exhibits a deep amber color, a result of the extended rest in barrels that not only provides attractive visual hues but also a unique olfactory richness. On the nose, it presents a symphony of aromas ranging from dried fruit to sweet spices, with a light and pleasant presence of vanilla and dark chocolate, evidencing the interaction with the wood during aging.

On the palate, the olfactory complexity is confirmed in a balanced and smooth taste, with a sweet entry that gradually gives way to a slightly spicy and persistently warm finish, typical of high-quality aged grappas. The texture is rich and enveloping, inviting thoughtful tastings possibly accompanied by dark chocolate or aged cheeses.

This distillate is particularly suited for those who wish to discover or delve deeper into the tradition of reserved Italian grappas, offering an authentically refined and intense taste experience. Ideal as a digestif, the Grappa A.D.Altavilla 10Y Riserva is also a splendid gift for connoisseurs of high-quality spirits.
