Dellavalle GRAPPA NEBBIOLO DA BAROLO Gran Cuvee 42% Vol. 0,7l

The Dellavalle Grappa Nebbiolo da Barolo Gran Cuvee is one of the characterful cask maturations from the Italian Distilleria Roberto Dellavalle, which offers a whole range of Piedmontese grappa cuvees. In addition to this Barolo variant, the collection also includes Grappa Moscato Gran Cuvee, Grappa Nebbiolo Gran Cuvee and Grappa Barbera Gran Cuvee, giving the distillery a versatile overview of the most important grape varieties and aroma profiles of Piedmont. For the Barolo Grappa Cuvee, only freshly harvested Nebbiolo pomace from the famous Barolo wine-growing region is distilled. Distillation is carried out in a particularly aroma-preserving manner in a discontinuous distillation system in a water bath, whereby the natural characteristics of the grape variety are fully preserved.

The single-varietal pomace brandy is then matured for two years in Slovenian oak barrels before an additional twelve-month finish in barriques. This double barrel maturation gives the Gran Cuvee its golden color, soft texture and harmonious, mildly spicy character. Bottled at 42% by volume, this grappa displays a balanced combination of aromas typical of Barolo - a fine balance of acidity, earthy nuances and delicate fruit sweetness - which are elegantly reflected in the distillate and flatter the palate. The spicy wood notes from the oak barrels round off the taste and give the grappa its long-lasting, harmonious finish.
