The marc, which is the remains of the grapes after the juice is extracted, is at the start of this Grappa's production. Sangiovese and Cabernet Grapes are mostly used for this product. As soon as their marc is fermented, it is drawn off from the tanks and pressed. Afterwards it is immediately taken to the distillery, this is quickly done to guarantee the best quality marc possible for distillation. After the distillation, a very careful selection is made of different 'lots' of grappa and only those which are the best are then blended and bottled. The end result is an excellent and refined grappa, which is rich in alcohol, sweet citrus taste and more importantly with good aromatic characteristics. It is stylishly smooth with a terrific persistence of flavor.

Grappa is great to be enjoyed after dinner with friends. With the Holiday Season here and lots of dinners with friends to attend, why not make Grappa Tignanello a Christmas gift this year? It is not only excellent for bare tasting, but it can also help prepare sublime dishes and desserts. Just come by Licores Maduro The Store and get your Grappa Tignanello!!
