Let’s talk about Grappa Sherry Cask Finish 50cl - Luigi Francoli

More questions

The Grappa Sherry Cask Finish by Luigi Francoli stands out for its elegant complexity, the result of a skillful distillation of Piedmontese grape pomace and aging in barrels previously used for sherry. This particular aging gives the distillate a warm tone and a rich aromatic profile, where notes of dried fruit, sweet spices, and vanilla hints harmoniously intertwine.

On the nose, intense and enveloping aromas emerge, with recalls of dried figs, almonds, and a delicate touch of cocoa, while on the palate the grappa reveals a soft and velvety structure, supported by a pleasant persistence. It is ideal as an after-dinner drink, capable of winning over those who seek a refined and complex character distillate, perfect to savor slowly to appreciate every nuance of the Piedmontese territory and the influence of sherry on its organoleptic notes.

Luigi Francoli

PiedmontItalySince 1951

The story
The Francoli family's production has alpine roots, but the modern business consolidated when Luigi Francoli moved to Ghemme (NO) and established the company: sources indicate the family's involvement in distillation since the postwar period and the founding of the activity in Ghemme in 1951. The commercial line under the "Luigi Francoli" brand was launched later as a premium range dedicated to grappa.
Distillation
Steam distillation for the line, with use of both continuous columns for large-scale production and batch/boiling distillations in small alembics at group sites for special products.
Ageing
Wood ageing and cask-finish: some grappas are aged or complete maturation in ex-Barolo, ex-Port, ex-Bourbon or ex-Sherry barrels/barriques; Slavonia and Limousin oak casks are also used for specific expressions.
