Production method

This grappa is produced by distilling the pomace of Piedmontese Nebbiolo grapes previously used to produce Barolo. The pomace arrives after racking and is fermented. After which we proceed to a distillation with a discontinuous alembic in order to maintain and preserve all the primary aromas of the grapes; after which distilled water is added until the liquid reaches the desired alcohol content of 50°. In order to elevate the aromatic and tertiary sensations, the grappa ages for 15 years in barriques.

It presents itself to the eye in a light and luminous amber color, with golden reflections. Intense and rich bouquet on the nose: from sensations of dried fruit, rare to find so clearly, candied fruit, dried plum, raisins which then fade into more spicy sensations such as boisé, pepper, licorice, cloves and tobacco. Wide, soft and powerful in the mouth, alcoholic and persistent finish, pleasantly ripe and elegant.
