Distillation and production
Production method
Rapid selection and collection of fresh pomace, controlled fermentation in stainless steel tanks, discontinuous (batch) distillation in copper steam stills with head and tail cuts, and natural aging in barriques and small casks under seal. Bottling without added colorants.
Distillation
Artisanal discontinuous (batch) distillation in copper steam stills with head and tail cuts; master distillation control.

Producer history Nonino
The Nonino family has been distilling since 1897, based in Percoto (Friuli Venezia Giulia). Over the years the family introduced major innovations: in 1973 Benito and Giannola Nonino created the first Monovitigno® grappa by distilling the pomace of a single grape variety separately. Leadership passed from Benito and Giannola to their daughters (including Cristina, Antonella and Elisabetta), who expanded the range to include amari, grape eaux-de-vie and aperitifs, promoting grappa also as a cocktail ingredient.
Production philosophy
A pursuit of quality, enhancement of native grape varieties and respect for the territory. Production favors artisanal interventions, control of the raw material supply chain and methods that preserve the original aromas of the grape cluster and fruit.
Territory
Friuli Venezia Giulia (mainly the Percoto / Pavia di Udine area; experimental vineyards and aging warehouses across the region).
Awards and recognitions
