Grappa obtained from the distillation of fresh Chardonnay grape pomace.
\nDistillation process: the Chardonnay pomace is fermented separately in September and immediately afterwards, still soft and juicy, sent for distillation. A discontinuous type still is used, which works under vacuum. A distillate is obtained with an alcohol content varying between 70 and 75 degrees; which, before bottling, will be diluted with distilled water until the alcohol content is brought to that indicated on the label.
\nDistillation period: October
\nCharacteristics: full and fruity bouquet. Balanced body, with a fascinating finish, which highlights distinctly varietal reminiscences.<\/p>\n
The Gaja, Ca’Marcanda and Pieve Santa Restituta grappas are produced at the Distilleria Cooperativa del Barbaresco founded in 1980. They are produced by the distillation of fresh pomace: the distillation period begins around mid-September and ends in November. After fermentation, the pomace, still soft and juicy, is prepared for distillation which takes place slowly using a discontinuous copper still which, working under vacuum, allows operation at a temperature lower than seventy degrees centigrade, preserving the fragrance and aroma of the distillate. aromas. This results in a distillate with an alcohol content varying between 70 and 75% vol. which, before bottling, is diluted with distilled water until the alcohol content is brought to that indicated on the label. This results in a white grappa with a strong, broad, juicy and satisfying flavour. Another part of the production is destined for careful refinement in small wooden barrels with a capacity of 225 liters for about a year: subsequently this product is added with distilled water until the alcohol content indicated on the label is reached. This aging process brings an amber color to the final product and a softer, rounder, harmonious and persistent flavour.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
