St. George Raspberry Brandy

Item # 30559 750mL

With a product that takes them back to their roots, this un-aged brandy from St. George opens with intense, concentrated fruit aromas. The fact that Lance does not de-stem the berries gives the distillate a beautiful--if funky--seaweed note on the nose that complements the sweet ripeness of the California fruit. The texture on the palate is indescribable, with waves of rich, soft flavors that include pure fruit, brush, stem, and earth. The long finish is all fruit with an unexpected hint of cherry and sweet, glazed carrot. Stunning stuff.

Staff Pick Notes

Close your eyes while taking a whiff of this brandy: you will be transported to every pleasing raspberry memory you have ever experienced... sorbet, coulis, berry picking on a warm day. This is a spirit with pristine potency and pure, fresh fruit flavor. Although undeniably cheerful to drink on its own, the little bit of sweetness and richness added by a splash of bianco vermouth complements the intense fruit flavor and makes just about the prettiest tasting martini in the world. You will never look at raspberry vodka again.
