GRAPPA
DI BAROLO
This is the result
of the distillation of the skins and seeds of Nebbiolo grapes used to
produce Barolo wine. The grapes ripen towards the end of October, and
the wine is drawn off after traditional fermentation of the must in
tanks. The solids are then delivered to the distillery, where they are
distilled during December. The grappa is aged for at least two years
in small oak barrels, and at the end of this maturation it has an unmistakeable
straw-yellow colour with golden hues, and an intense aroma with hints
of vanilla and spices.
