Cellini Cru Grappa 700ml

Cellini Cru Grappa represents a refined take on Italy’s traditional grape-based spirit, crafted from carefully selected pomace sourced from the prestigious wine regions of Veneto and Friuli. Unlike the fiery rustic grappas of old, this expression offers a remarkably approachable and elegant drinking experience that showcases the nuanced character modern distillation can achieve.

Produced using fresh grape skins, seeds and stems left over from winemaking, this Italian grappa draws on over two centuries of distilling expertise. The pomace undergoes meticulous distillation to preserve the delicate fruit aromatics while filtering out harsh elements, resulting in a pristine crystal-clear spirit.

Nose: Refreshing aromas of white flowers, citrus zest, and subtle almond notes invite you in with a delicate perfumed quality that speaks to the careful selection of grape varieties.

Palate: Extremely rich yet beautifully balanced, the mouthfeel is clean, intense and velvety with fresh berry fruit, hints of apple crumble, and gentle wood spices adding complexity without overwhelming the grape character.

Finish: Very smooth and long, with a tannic dryness that keeps the experience refined rather than cloying, allowing the fruit and floral notes to linger gracefully.

Serve this grappa chilled in a tulip-shaped glass to concentrate the aromatics, or enjoy it at room temperature after dinner alongside dark chocolate or a good cigar. It also works beautifully drizzled over desserts, stirred into espresso, or as a distinctive base for contemporary cocktails.

A thoughtful gift for anyone curious about premium Italian spirits or looking to explore grappa beyond preconceptions of harsh firewater.
