This exquisite Grappa Ometti Barolo is a true delight for connoisseurs of Italian spirits. Masterfully distilled, it is a shining example of excellence derived from the pomace of Nebbiolo grapes, the same used in the production of the prestigious Barolo wine. This grappa, presented in an elegant 70cl bottle, perfectly embodies the blend of tradition and sophistication.
On the nose, Grappa Ometti Barolo is distinguished by its intensely varied aromatic bouquet, with notes of ripe fruit, vanilla, and a subtle hint of fine wood acquired from its aging in barrels. This process not only adds aromatic complexity but also gives it a slightly amber color that is visually captivating.
On the palate, it offers a balanced and harmonious structure. The aromas sensed in the bouquet transform into rich and lingering taste sensations, with a prolonged and very pleasant finish that leaves an impression of elegance and warmth. With its rounded body and smoothness, this grappa can be enjoyed both as a digestif after a meal and as a sophisticated base for innovative cocktails.
It is ideal to serve it at room temperature or slightly chilled in small, narrow glasses, to fully appreciate its rich and complex aroma. An excellent choice for those seeking a distinctive and high-quality sensory experience. This Grappa Barolo by Ometti is more than just a simple spirit; it is a journey through the richness of Piedmontese wine traditions.

The story
Origins date back to 1885 when Francesco Trussoni, master of stills, began production of the first single-varietal Grappa di Barolo. In 1922 the business passed to the Montanaro family (Mario, Angela and Giuseppe), who introduced steam stills and refined the production method. At the end of the 2000s the distillery was sold to a group of local entrepreneurs while preserving artisanal methods and traditions.
Distillation
Batch distillation in steam-heated copper stills; demethylation and fraction separation with a double column.
Ageing
Aging in wooden barrels for grappas and aged brandies (ranges from 18 to many years for the vintage bottlings); use of traditional casks and, for some references, century-old casks or Slavonian oak.
