The purpose is the same: to produce and market niche products based on the clients’ needs.grappolino The company uses a discontinuous bain-marie distillation system to produce distillates from an expert selection of fresh marcs. Ageing is the main technique that distinguishes this company because, as well as the 18 month ageing in oak barriques, there is also a unique technique used to age Grappa di Barbera for a total of 10 years in barriques that were previously used to age Marsala, Passito di Pantelleria, Port, Whiskey, Picolit and Malvasia delle Lipari; in this way, the product in the barriques extracts a large part of the main fragrances contained within the cracks of the wood, giving the grappa extremely distinctive scents and tastes.
