Bottega Sambuca d’Anice Stellato
- $29
The initial aromas of aniseed, coffee beans and botanicals become surprisingly coffee-like, buttery and intensely earthy following aeration. Palate entry is smooth as silk, coffee-like and beany with an aniseed underpinning; midpalate is perfectly balanced between the coffee influence and the aniseed herbaceousness.

Bottega 2009 Millesimato Il Vino dei Poeti Brut Glera (Prosecco)
Here’s an easy, straight -shooting Prosecco that would pair nicely with stuffed eggrolls or crispy fried shrimp. The wine’s sharp acidity will counter the oil in those foods.

Bottega Limoncino Sicilian Lemons and Grappa Liqueur
- $26
The initial aroma is sweet and pleasantly lemony; following aeration the aroma turns candied and firmly sweet. The palate entry is juicy, tart, and pleasing; at midpalate the taste profile turns a touch mineral- and metal-like, but is still delightfully citrusy. Concludes properly tart. Serve ice cold or on the rocks.
