GRAPPA MERLOT

Grappa Merlot

Grappa is a pomace eau-de-vie, obtained by distilling fermented grape skins used in wine production. It is the most ancient and traditional distillate in Northern Italy and its name comes from “graspo”, a local name for the bunch. A symbol of man’s talent and passion, it is the heritage of peasant experience and wisdom, which transformed a solid raw material into a transparent, crystal clear liquid, rich in diverse organoleptic sensations. Grappa Alexander is the ideal meeting point between tradition and innovation, between the millenary history of this precious distillate and the evolution in its production technique, which mitigated its original harshness to make it softer, more refined and elegant. This Grappa is not for drinking, but for slow tasting, in small sips.

Serving Suggestions

Grappa is perfect after meals, particularly when based on savory meat or cheese courses. It can be enjoyed cold or even chilled, and is an ingredient in cocktails and long drinks. This aromatic Grappa Chardonnay Alexander is a perfect match with white chocolate, shortbread cakes, dried fruit, ice creams or fruit salads. It is traditionally used to correct espresso coffee and, in Veneto and Friuli, to dilute the last drops of coffee remaining on the bottom of the cup (Resentin): the invigorating effect of coffee, combined with the relaxing action of alcohol, gives a pleasant sensation of well-being and energy.
