CASTAGNER TORBA NERA 10 ANNI RISERVA LT 0,70 - 40% vol. alc.
Torba Nera is an innovative distillate, unique in its kind. It is obtained from a skillfully blended combination of the merlot, cabernet, pinot nero del piave and Glera. It is aged for over 120 months, passing from casks of cherry to oak, to give added body to all that nature has so superbly created.
DISTILLATION
Grape skins are lightly toasted before being distilled in order to obtain a unique smoked grappa. The final blend with an alcoholic strength of 58°is kept in new cherry wood casks for the first six months and then transferred into new and used casks of medium toasted oak. Aging lasts 10 years. Given that wood has a porous and permeable structure, every six months the casks are topped up with grappa of the same quality to compensate for the loss of product by evaporation.
SENSORY FEATURES
Decisive and refined aromas of smoked wood, leather, tobacco, dark chocolate, toasted coffee together with sweet spicy undertones.
SERVING SUGGESTIONS
