From the Po' di Poli series — Poli's line of elegant, varietal grappas named for the Po River valley — this Elegante expression is distilled from the fresh pomace of Pinot grapes at the Poli family distillery in Bassano del Grappa, in the heart of the Veneto. Founded in 1898 and now in its fourth generation, Poli is the only Italian distillery chosen by the famous travel guide Lonely Planet among the 10 craft distilleries in the world worthy to be visited. Distilled in traditional copper pot stills to preserve the grape's clear varietal character, it is a refined, aromatic grappa of remarkable elegance.
Tasting Notes:
Nose: An intriguing bouquet of leather, candle wax, flax and earthy scents of moss, grass, stone and damp soil — with the series' signature floral lift of roses, lilies and gardenias.
Palate: Lusciously ripe and intensely grapy, with the ripe grape element carrying through the midpalate.
Finish: Satiny and stone-like. Delicious.
