More questions
Grappa Nardini Selezione Bortolo 15 Anni Riserva is a refined distillate born from the historic tradition of the Nardini distillery, located in the picturesque area of Bassano del Grappa, in Veneto. This excellent product stands out for the careful selection of grape pomace from fine grapes, subjected to slow and patient distillation, followed by an aging of fifteen years in wooden barrels, which gives depth and character.
On the nose, it reveals intense and complex notes of vanilla, sweet wood, almond, and spicy touches, while on the palate it is soft, warm, and enveloping, with a long and harmonious finish that tells the artisan expertise and the territory it comes from. Its aromatic richness makes it ideal as an elegant digestive, perfect to accompany moments of reflection or to enhance a tasting of dark chocolate and aged cheeses. A true symbol of Italian tradition and quality.

The story
Production began in 1779 when Bortolo Nardini opened his grapperia at the entrance of the Ponte Vecchio in Bassano del Grappa. The company has remained family-run for generations and has expanded its production facilities over the years (including the Monastier plant) while preserving the historic headquarters and the Grapperia on the bridge. For its 225th anniversary the 'Le Bolle' complex, an architectural and research center designed by Massimiliano Fuksas, was created. Nardini is a member of Les Hénokiens, the club of bicentenary family companies.
Distillation
Distillation of vinacce with mixed practices: discontinuous/batch distillation (historically) and use of column/continuous plants at external sites; use of reduced-pressure techniques to preserve aromas (technical details vary by product).
Ageing
For Riserva grappas, aging in wood is practiced; there are references labeled Riserva with multi-year maturations (known examples: 3, 5, 7, 15, 22 years), details are specific to each product.
Raw materials
- vinacce (pomace) - selected from Veneto and Friuli
