The word chaparral defines dry vegetation consisting of tangled shrubs and thorny bushes; as any Californian knows, this perfectly describes a large portion of the state’s iconic, rolling landscape. Brucato Chaparral evokes this terroir with an amaro rooted in the traditional, herbal alpine liqueurs of Italy and France. A base of California-sourced neutral grape spirit is enlivened with featured botanicals of yerba santa, anise, mint, cardamom, California bay leaf, tarragon, and clove. A total of 20 ingredients are incorporated with the base distillate in a stepped maceration process, and the resulting spirit rests for at least two months in stainless steel before it is sweetened with cane sugar. Designed to intuitively replace spirits such as Chartreuse, Becherovka, or Strega in classic applications, Chaparral yet imparts a distinct character. A nose of green tea, bay leaf, and mint introduces a warm and bright palate of yellow herbs, cinnamon, and anise. Cardamom blooms late, leading into big notes of mint on the finish. Non-chill filtered and with a hue supplied only by its botanicals, enjoy this spirit in mixed drinks or as an after-dinner treat.

Region: California

California as a wine producing region has grown in size and importance considerably over the past couple of centuries, and today is the proud producer of more than ninety percent of the United States' wines. Indeed, if California was a country, it would be the fourth largest producer of wine in the world, with a vast range of vineyards covering almost half a million acres. The secret to California's success as a wine region has a lot to do with the high quality of its soils, and the fact that it has an extensive Pacific coastline which perfectly tempers the blazing sunshine it experiences all year round. The winds coming off the ocean cool the vines, and the natural valleys and mountainsides which make up most of the state's wine regions make for ideal areas in which to cultivate a variety of high quality grapes.

Country: United States

Whilst there are several strains of native grape varietals in the United States, it was the introduction of the European species which prompted the country to begin producing wines on a large scale. Over the past few centuries, experimentation and cross-breeding has produced great successes in regards to the quality and suitability of the fruit grown in states such as California, Oregon, Washington and New York, and the past few decades have seen New World wines from the United States reach much higher standards. Arguably the finest United States wines have always come out of California, where the climate and terrroir is most suitable for fine wine production. The masterful blending of classic grape varietals such as Cabernet Sauvignon and Merlot, amongst others including Syrah and Chardonnay, have had world beating results in recent years, prompting many to suggest that there has never been a better time for buying and drinking United States wines.
