GRAPPA LIMOUSIN
Every grappa has its own story.
Limousin writes a new one.
Not all grappas are the same.
GRAPPA LIMOUSIN
Grappa Limousin is born from the encounter between the purity of the finest grape pomace and Alessandro Francoli’s expertise in wood aging techniques.
It is not just a grappa but an experience that combines elegance, complexity, and character, taking the distillate beyond its traditional boundaries.
Distilled from traditional Piedmontese grape pomace, the woody notes define its bold character and enrich it with elegant spicy nuances. The final ageing in small oak barrels from the Limousin forest adds enticing hints of dried fruit, while the Moscato contributes its intense and unique fragrance and freshness, completing a masterful balance of taste and aroma.
