Laurent Cazottes, Goutte de Prunelart Eau de Vie, NV (375ml)
Prunelart is a nearly extinct grape from the Tarn and an ancestor of Malbec, and Laurent Cazottes grows it organically for the express purpose of distilling it. The fruit is harvested ripe and dried on mats to concentrate the sugars and aromatics, then fermented and pot-distilled, with the proof brought down slowly using demineralized water instead of a brutal cut. This is a grape eau-de-vie rather than a marc, and it shows: darker and more brooding than his orchard spirits, with dark berry, plum skin, a little spice and a dry, savory grip. Nothing added, no sugar, no color, no shortcuts. Serve it cool in a small glass at the end of a big meal.
