The Antinori Tignanello Grappa NV is an elegant Italian grappa crafted from pomace sourced from the renowned Tignanello estate in Tuscany. Produced using traditional distillation methods, this non-vintage spirit reflects the aromatic character of the Sangiovese and Bordeaux varieties used in Tignanello, offering both intensity and refinement. The nose is expressive, showing aromas of dried fruit, citrus peel and white flowers alongside hints of spice, almond and delicate herbal notes.
On the palate, it is smooth and structured, with a warming texture balanced by freshness and fine spirit integration. Flavours of dried apricot, orange zest and subtle spice carry through a clean, persistent finish, while gentle earthy and nutty notes add further complexity. The style remains refined and measured, highlighting purity and balance rather than excessive weight.
Ben’s Recommendation:
At Wine More Cellars, this is an excellent grappa for customers seeking a polished and traditional Italian digestif with aromatic detail and finesse. Best served lightly chilled or at cool room temperature in small pours. Pairs particularly well with hard cheeses, dark chocolate desserts or as an after-dinner accompaniment.
