Molinari Molinari Sambuca Extra NV 1.0L

Brilliant, transparent, oily core; superb purity. The tantalizing botanical aroma of anise entices the taste buds as the deeply herbal, forest-like/woodsy fragrances keep unfolding through both rounds of sniffing, providing a textbook Sambuca bouquet that is not too sweet but intensely herbaceous. While the sweetness held off in the aroma, it comes on with a full-frontal barrage in the entry; midpalate echoes the entry. Aftertaste is delicately sweet, concentrated, sugary, seed-like. Lovely.
