97 Castello Banfi, Grappa
Some of the best grappa Ive ever had has been from the Brunello grape of Montalcino, and Banfis addition is no exception. As with all great grappa, this one is intensely aromatic both in the nose and in the finish. Redolent of flowers and fresh grape must, on the palate those elements are joined by a pleasant nuttiness. Smooth and warm, this is a post-prandial treat.
