Producer history Mazzetti
The Mazzetti family began distilling in the Monferrato in 1846 when Filippo Mazzetti founded the first distillery in Montemagno; the activity later expanded and relocated to Altavilla Monferrato. The company has remained family-run for generations, establishing itself as a historic presence in the production of grappa and Piedmontese distillates.
Production philosophy
To valorise the territory and local raw materials (pomace and Piedmontese grapes), focusing on quality and distillation tradition while combining research and innovation through wood maturations and curated special bottle collections.
Territory
Monferrato, Piedmont (Altavilla Monferrato is the company's historic and production site).
