The story
Sgrappa was born from the idea of artist Maurizio Cattelan, developed with Paolo Dalla Mora and Charley Vezza. The project celebrates the memory of the traditional Italian distillate inherited in Cattelan's family, reinterpreting it with a contemporary, strongly aesthetic and conceptual approach.
Production philosophy
To combine the tradition of the Italian distillate with a contemporary, ironic approach oriented to mixing: the grappa is designed to be enjoyed neat or as an ingredient in cocktails and caffè corretto, with attention to product design and artistic communication.
Territory
Produced in Piedmont, locality Cunico (province of Asti).
Production method
Made from selected red grape pomace. Production uses small discontinuous copper stills with steam injection and a subsequent pass through a rectifying column to improve aromatic cleanliness and balance.
Distillation
Discontinuous distillation in small copper pot stills with steam injection; the distillate is then rectified in a column to achieve greater aromatic cleanliness.
