Description
Type
Grappa aged over 48 months in wood.
Grape selection
Exclusively Nebbiolo for Barolo.
Pomace origin and conservation
DOCG vineyards of historic producers in Barolo, La Morra, Serralunga, Grinzane Cavour. Locally processed pomace with low yields.
The pomace, chosen to be fresh and still dripping with must, according to an ancient recipe of Serafino Levi, is immediately compressed in underground pits in order to obtain a natural tanning, capable of extracting all the aromas and flavors of the Nebbiolo grape.
Characteristics of the still
Copper pot still, the only direct fire device in the world still being used for distilling Grappa.
Distillation system
“Grappa distillata da ignari” (Grappa distilled by unaware people) with the discontinuous method with direct fire and submerged pomace.
The steam generated from the distillation of pomace, enriched with alcohol-aromatic components, is condensed with subsequent fractional distillation of the phlegm in a copper column with 7 plates.
This procedure, perfected by Romano Levi and still strictly adhered to, ensures the perfect conservation of the aromatic components, important for the organoleptic characteristics of Grappa.

Permanence in wood
Aged at least 48 months in classic Piedmontese barrels of about 700 litres capacity, made of various types of wood, stored in rooms with the right humidity and at a constant temperature.
