The variety of grapes used for Grappa Luxardo are Cabernet and Merlot picked on and around the Euganean Hills, near Padova in the Veneto region.
The grape's stem has been distilled in a traditonal copper dicontinuous still and aged by Luxardo in white ashwood to mellow its taste. “Unusual citrus, lavender and
stone fruit aromas. A viscous
attack leads to a medium-bodied
palate with great smoothness.
Shows very little burn. Neutral,
rounded finish.”
