Cellar
The Montanaro distillery found its forerunner in Francesco Trussoni, master of Alchemy in Gallo d'Alba. As early as 1885, he had the brilliant intuition to create Grappa di Barolo, the first single-varietal grappa in history. In 1922, the company passed under the leadership of Mario Montanaro and his wife Angela Trussoni who were, with their son Giuseppe, the perfectionists of a discontinuous steam-powered distillation plant unique to the time.
At the end of 2000, Mr Giuseppe Montanaro, now almost 80 years old, in the absence of direct heirs, decided to sell the Montanaro distillery to a group of Alba entrepreneurs. Today, thanks to the experience of its collaborators, the Montanaro distillery seeks to place itself among the top players in the distillation world, with products that meet the increasingly sophisticated needs of the market.
Description
Grappa Di Barolo Millesimata 2007 della distilleria Montanaro è stata prodotta dalle migliori vinacce di uva Nebbiolo da Barolo. Si tratta di una grappa molto intensa e persistente, complessa con leggere note fruttate e più intense note speziate tipiche del lungo invecchiamento. Il prodotto viene venduto in una confezione di legno che rende questo distillato perfetto come idea regalo.
Organoleptic characteristics:
It has a bright amber colour with intense hues and a warm tone.
The perfume perceived before tasting is enveloping and intense. Slight fruity notes and more marked spicy notes typical of aged Barolo are perceived.

Storage time:
over 20 years
Vinification
