Dolcetto d’Ovada Grappa – Triple-Aged in Oak for Subtle Complexity

Crafted from Dolcetto grape pomace, this artisanal grappa undergoes a meticulous 3-year maturation in 1,000-liter French oak tonneaux. The generous barrel size ensures gentle wood integration, preserving the fruit’s vibrancy while imparting layers of toasted vanilla and dried fig nuances—distinct from harsher tannin-forward competitors.

Why It Stands Out:
✅ Balanced Aging Profile – Larger oak vessels prevent overpowering tannins, yielding a silky texture with 42% ABV that feels lighter on the palate
✅ Fruit-Forward Character – Dominant notes of sun-dried cherries and wild berries complement subtle clove and cinnamon spice undertones
✅ Visually Distinctive – Deep amber hue signals advanced aging without compromising aromatic intensity

Perfect as a digestif paired with dark chocolate or aged cheeses, this small-batch grappa (limited to 50 cases/year) showcases Piedmont’s terroir through its velvety mouthfeel and lingering stone fruit finish. Ideal for connoisseurs seeking sophisticated Italian spirits with controlled wood influence.
