Distillation and production

Production method

Production in distillation facilities with an artisanal approach supported by modern methods; processing of grape pomace for grappa, distillation of spirits and production of gin and vodka with selected botanicals. The company also carries out contract manufacturing for third parties.

Distillation

Distillation with an artisanal approach combined with modern technologies; the company declares consolidated experience in distilling grappa and other spirits and also offers third-party production.

Ageing

Slow maturation in wooden casks for the aged selections (barrel-aged grappas and aged distillates).

Producer history Collesi

The company was founded thanks to Giuseppe Collesi's initiative: the idea to start grappa production dates back to 1997, while the Apecchio distillery opened at the end of 2001. Initially focused on single-varietal grappas from local grapes, production later expanded to include gin, vodka, brandy, liqueurs and even craft-brewing activities linked to the water and agricultural resources of the family estates.

Production philosophy

Quality of local raw materials, respect for the territory and the combination of tradition and innovation: Collesi focuses on selecting inputs (grape pomace and local agricultural products), artisanal care in processes and the development of new expressions of distillates while maintaining a strong territorial identity.

Territory

Località Pian della Serra, Apecchio (province of Pesaro e Urbino), on the slopes of Monte Nerone, Marche, Italy.

Awards and recognitions

World Drinks Awards 2017: Gin Collesi received recognitions (silver medals, including the 'compound' category and bottle design); Vodka Collesi received a gold medal (bottle design).
