Reserve Grappa
100% of the grape pomace used for our Grappa is sourced from local wineries, however the grapes are predominately sourced from the west coast of the USA. We do not add sugar to the pomace — we simply add water to rehydrate before distilling, giving us a smooth, floral Grappa with a clean finish. Another way to think of this product is as pomace brandy. Pomace is everything left after winemaking: grape skins, meat, stems, and seeds. Our Reserve Grappa is rested in barrels for a minimum of 9 months. We use all new American oak from Kentucky. The barrels are 25 gallons and have a heavy char.
Grappa is the result of Italian winemakers working to create little to no waste after wine making. The word Grappa comes from the word ‘grappolo’ which means grapes. It is said to aid in digestion after a heavy meal. Many people will consume a small pour in between courses to help stimulate their hunger. Another commonly enjoyed method for consuming Grappa is Caffe Coretto — Grappa, coffee, and a sugar cube.
