Brandy Garofoli 12 anni 70cl
Brandy over 12 years<br /><br />The base is a single-varietal wine from a single vintage, 2003. The Montepulciano grapes were selected, harvested and vinified specifically for this production. The raw<br />material was distilled using a discontinuous bain-marie still in water diffusion. The passage of years, the balanced use of small oak casks and the magic of the microclimate<br />make this Brandy an exceptional product.<br /><br />Processing and refinement<br />The Brandy was distilled in 2003 from a wine specially vinified for this production. In 2004 the Brandy was aged in small, medium-toasted Allier oak barrels, previously used<br />to age Chardonnay wine. The Brandy remains in these barrels until 2012 when it is bottled and then left to rest in the bottle for a further 3 years. Finally, after 12 years from<br />the grape harvest, our Brandy is ready to be tasted.<br /><br />Colour: pale amber.<br />Nose: elegant woody floral notes, with hints of vanilla, sweet spices and dried fruit.<br />Taste: warm and enveloping sip, it introduces a pleasant texture<br />that conquers with an 'aroma of refinement' and softness.<br />Alchol: 43% vol.<br />Serving temperature: 16° - 18° C<br />
