2008 Berta Grappa di Moscato-Aged Bric Gaian Grappa 750ml

Natural grape pomace from Moscato vines and extended barrel maturation define this 2008 Berta Grappa di Moscato, produced in northern Italy for collectors and digestif enthusiasts. Berta isolates the aromatic compounds of freshly processed Moschatel grape skins and seeds through traditional distillation, then rests the clear spirit in seasoned wooden casks until bottling. The prolonged aging transforms the raw distillate into a golden-amber liqueur with softened edges and a visibly viscous structure.

Flavor Profile: Wood contact deepens the primary fruit character into notes of baked quince, acacia blossom, and light toasted oak. The palate delivers a smooth, medium-full body with hints of caramelized peach, polished vanilla, and a brief mineral backbone. Alcohol heat is fully integrated, leaving a long, clean finish that warms gradually rather than burning.

Serving Suggestions
