Distillation takes place in pot stills working in a discontinuous cycle. To make a good grappa, the pomace must be completely fermented and distilled as soon as the wine has been racked off, after only light pressing. The average alcohol content of the distillate obtained is 75% vol. and before bottling, it is diluted with distilled water to the desired alcohol content. It is then cooled to a temperature of 10 °C and filtered 48 hours later. Grappa Stravecchia has a characteristic amber-gold appearance. Full-bodied, aromatic and subtly elegant; a seriously good spirit with a unique sensory profile, it is distilled in limited. Grappa ages for about five years in small oak barrels (barriques), in which the estate’s flagship wine has previously matured: San Leonardo. Alcohol Content: 45% vol.
