The Aleatico Grappa from Tenuta delle Ripalte is made from the fresh pomace of Aleatico, an aromatic red grape variety typical of Elba. After the pressing of the grapes for the production of passito wine, the still fragrant and rich pomace is sent for distillation. This process, entrusted to the expertise of Vittorio Capovilla and his renowned distillery, results in the creation of a grappa with exceptional characteristics.
DISTILLATION
Craft-distilled in a discontinuous bain-marie still, this grappa is made from fresh Aleatico pomace, carefully selected for its aromatic richness. The slow, controlled distillation process allows the varietal characteristics of the grape to be extracted in their fullest expression.
AGEING
To preserve the purity and intensity of the aromas, the grappa is not aged in wood, maintaining its natural fragrance and the authentic profile of Aleatico.
