Mazzetti d'Altavilla Gin London Dry 42° 70cl

Mazzetti d'Altavilla Gin London Dry 42° is a Piedmontese signature spirit that expresses the aromatic richness and purity of the Alpine foothills. This prestigious label is born from the centuries-old experience of the historic Altavilla company, which has successfully translated its mastery of the art of distillation into a modern and proud spirit. Designed to meet the needs of a contemporary audience and lovers of crisp aromas, this gin showcases an exclusive recipe based on carefully selected local botanicals.

Palate, Structure, and Body

From the first moment, it offers a rigorously dry, upright, and structurally uncompromised entry, offering a sensation of total cleanliness and enveloping volume. The body unfolds austerely, straight, and elegantly, guided by an impeccable progression of flavors where a vibrant citrus freshness lightens the structure and energizes the drink. The sip continues smooth and mellow, evolving on warm, balsamic notes with a long, lingering herbal finish, before concluding with a distinctly dry, clean finish free of any artificial sugary overtones or pungent alcohol.

Aromatic and Botanical Profile

The olfactory profile is striking for the intensity and complexity of a crystalline bouquet, capable of evoking the fresh scents of the pre-Alpine undergrowth in the morning. On the nose, the impact reveals a distinct and pungent balsamic note of wild juniper berries, historically called "zenèiver" in the local Piedmontese dialect. This bold, resinous signature is beautifully enriched and complemented by fresh citrus bursts of lemon zest and delicate medicinal fragrances of sage and rosemary, enhanced on the finish by subtle spicy nuances of cardamom.
