Bottega Grappa Aldo Barricata 43% Vol. 1l online kaufen

Bottega Grappa Aldo Barricata is an aged grappa from Italy that reflects the Bottega family’s long-standing tradition of distillation. It is named after Aldo Bottega, who founded the Distilleria Bottega in 1977. As the son of a family of distillers and an experienced master distiller, he acquired extensive knowledge at an early age of the distillation of grape marc, which forms the basis for the production of grappa. This bottling draws on the founder’s artisanal heritage and combines it with targeted barrel ageing. After distillation, the Aldo Bottega Barricata is left to refine in oak barriques, allowing the originally clear spirit to develop further in terms of colour and structure.

Maturation in oak barriques gives the grappa its characteristic light golden to amber colour and complements the fruity base with spicy woody and vanilla notes. The focus is on a smooth and rounded style that combines the aromatic qualities of the pomace with the influences of barrel ageing. With a robust 43% alcohol content and a generous 1-litre bottle, Bottega Grappa Aldo Barricata 1 l is aimed both at connoisseurs of matured Italian grappa and at the hospitality sector and well-stocked home bars. The combination of Italian distilling tradition, grape pomace and barrique ageing makes this bottling a classic example of Bottega’s aged grappa specialities.

Tasting Note

Nose: Intense and complex, with pronounced fruit aromas that give way to spicy notes, rounded off by a subtle hint of vanilla.

Bottega Grappa Aldo Barricata is particularly well suited as a digestif after a hearty meal or as a grappa to be savoured in a quiet moment. Bottega recommends a serving temperature of 10 to 12 °C, although the grappa can also be enjoyed chilled to a lower temperature if desired. It pairs particularly well with dark chocolate, chocolate desserts and dry pastries, whose robust flavours complement the fruit and oak notes. Furthermore, this matured grappa can be used as a characterful base for cocktails and long drinks.
