Far and away Italy's best selling premium grappa, Nardini Bianca remains unchallenged as the connoisseur's benchmark. Authentically high in strength, 'Bianca' fills the palate with an exciting sparkle, then largely thanks to its fine balance and extraordinary distillation quality surprises the drinker with its remarkably gentle follow through. It's not hard to appreciate why this grappa continues to be valued for its digestive capabilities as well as its excellent flavour. Scored a coveted 'Silver' in the 2006 International Wine Spirit Competition. Ideal drinking temperature chilled to between 8 and 10 degrees C 46 50 degrees F or freezer chilled. Nose Initial hint of raclette, jasmine tea, dried lemon zest, lemon meringue, rounded and fruity with acacia honey notes. Palate smooth, mellow, opening up with jasmine tea, cinnamon, lemon zest, acacia honey and gingerbread, nicely layered with fresh jasmine tea coming back to the fore. Finish jasmine tea and lemon meringue, with hints of gingerbread and lemon curd. Tasting notes by Ian Wisniewski, London, June 2003
