Sibona Grappa Riserva Sherry Barrels (0.5L, 44% Vol.)

This special Grappa Riserva di Barbera already matured for a long period (2 years) in oak wood, was then aged for over 24 monthsin barrels purchased in Spain and already used to elevate the “Sherry” of one of the most prestigious wineries. The particular period in Sherry barrels was experimented by us in an innovative way on Grappa and with exceptional results from a qualitative point of view. The intense and characterizing aroma and the elegant, engaging flavor with a sweet aftertaste are very reminiscent of that of the Sherry already contained in these barrels.
