More questions

Pilzer's Asperula is a distillate born in the enchanting setting of the Trentino mountains, where pristine nature and a particularly favorable climate contribute to the creation of products of exceptional quality. This grappa is obtained from the distillation of very pure grape pomace, selected with extreme rigor to ensure a final product of great finesse and aromatic intensity.

With a crystalline and pure appearance, it presents itself clear and bright to the eye, immediately inviting tasting. To the nose, Pilzer's Asperula stands out for its delicate floral notes, enriched by a background of alpine herbs and a light streak of fresh fruit. This aromatic bouquet is the result of careful distillation and a precise selection of raw materials.

In the mouth, the palate is conquered by its softness and the complexity of flavors. Notes of aromatic herbs blend harmoniously with sweet and fruity sensations, creating a perfect balance between alcohol content and freshness. The aromatic persistence is remarkable, leaving a pleasantly clean and lasting aftertaste.

This distillate is magnificently suited both as a digestif after meals and as a base for creating refined and original cocktails. Pilzer's Asperula is a true gem for connoisseurs and enthusiasts of mountain spirits, offering a unique and unforgettable sensory experience.

A tip? Serve it slightly chilled to best enhance its aromatic qualities. Pilzer's Asperula is more than a distillate; it is a journey into the heart of the Trentino Alps.

The story
Production started from Vincenzo Pilzer's idea in the 1950s; the company cites 1957 as its reference year. Today production is carried on by the second generation, brothers Bruno and Ivano Pilzer, who expanded the range and facilities while maintaining an artisanal, territory-focused approach.
Distillation
Discontinuous distillation in stills (pot still/lambicar) with controlled fraction separation to preserve aromas; fermentation of pomace in stainless steel tanks before distillation.
Ageing
Aging in wooden containers (barrique and large casks) and in steel depending on the lines; there are long-aged references (e.g., the Historiae line up to 12 years) and barrique lines (minimum 36 months for some labels).
Raw materials
  • pomace (vinacce) from Trentino vineyards
  • fruit (apricots, apples, pears, quinces) for eaux-de-vie
  • alpine herbs and local botanicals for amari and flavored distillates
