I have an old, unopened bottle of this “Product of Italy”…
La Valdotaine, Saint Marcel - Valle d’Aosta
50cl 40% proof.
Is this good for a “nip” or better “softened” by adding dried prunes (or apricots) for a few months… and using the resulting gunge over icecream (for grownups) ???
No idea if that one is good, but I very much enjoy a grappa.
At 40% I’m wondering if it grabs the back of the throat (ie harsh) ??? or gently “knocks you out” momentarily 
Very much like Marc de Bourgogne
Try it and see! Grappa can be smooth and silky or it can cauterise the back of your eyeballs as you drink it, you never know 
I have no wish to open it just to taste it. I was hoping someone would have some experience of this stuff.
I’ll ask around, see if someone knows it and wants it.
If all else fails, we’ll risk it and open it… hic
Opening it won’t do it any harm
Send it to me. I’ll happily taste it on your behalf and send a detailed assessment.
