Grappa Stravecchia 2 litri...
More than a thousand years ago it was a monastery, and for over three centuries it has been the residence of the Marchesi Guerrieri Gonzaga, who are its passionate<br />guardians. Today, the San Leonardo estate is a garden of vines and roses, protected by the imposing Trentino mountains that dampen the cold northern winds, while the<br />valley floor welcomes and offers the warmth of Lake Garda. The estate is an ancient world where patient winemaking practices, still absolutely artisanal, give wines that are<br />authentic jewels of Italian oenology, distinguished by freshness, harmony and an innate elegance.<br /><br />THE GRAPPAS OF SAN LEONARDO<br />Marquis Carlo Guerrieri Gonzaga discovered this marvellous jug in the attics of Villa Gresti, where it had been kept since the time of the great wars. Dating back to 1800, it<br />was probably used as a water bottle for the night when the family retired here during the summers. From the moment it was found, the idea was immediately to use it as an<br />emblem of Grappa.<br />Grappa di San Leonardo is produced in very small quantities from marc from the estate vineyards and distilled in small stills using direct steam. Grappa Stravecchia is aged<br />for a full 5 years in the barriques previously used to age the famous San Leonardo, giving it depth and great elegance.Distillation | Following a light pressing, the pomace is<br />immediately processed using a steam still.Tasting Notes | The characteristic amber-gold colour distinguishes this Grappa. Full-bodied, aromatic, as fine as it is elegant; it<br />is an important distillate with incomparable organoleptic properties. Alcohol content | Grappa Stravecchia 45% vol.<br />
