Antinori Tignanello Grappa 500mL NV

Antinori Tignanello Grappa is an Italian spirit distilled from the pomace of Tignanello, the Tuscan red that helped rewrite Italy's wine law.

Grappa is made from vinacce, the skins, pips and pulp left in the press after the wine has been drawn off. Here the marc comes from the Sangiovese and Cabernet Sauvignon grown for Tignanello on the Antinori estate at Santa Cristina in Chianti Classico. Tignanello was first made in 1971, aged in barriques and blended with Cabernet in defiance of the DOC rules of the day, and was sold as a mere table wine as a result. The pomace is distilled while still fresh, soon after pressing, and grappa itself is a protected designation, meaning it may only be produced in Italy from Italian grape marc.

Serve as a digestivo after dinner, either at room temperature or lightly chilled, in a small tulip glass.
