Distillation and production

Production method

For the grappas listed in product sheets the raw material is represented by selected fresh pomace (e.g. Nebbiolo from Barolo, Moscato). Grappa distillation is described in product information as discontinuous (batch) distillation in small copper boilers/stills; some labels include subsequent ageing periods in wood.

Distillation

Discontinuous (batch) method (distillation in copper boilers/aldaie / small batch copper stills).

Ageing

Some grappas undergo ageing in oak barrels or tonneaux (mentioned for Barolo/Cannubi labels); others are marketed uncoloured/unaged as non-aged grappa.

Producer history Borgogno

The Borgogno house (Vini Classici Borgogno / Giacomo Borgogno & Figli) is a historic Barolo estate with documented roots dating back to the 18th century. The company's official history records its origin in 1761; over the centuries it has maintained a traditional production style and in recent years has embarked on sustainability initiatives and conversion to certified organic farming.

Production philosophy

Traditional, terroir-driven approach: attention to slow vinification and ageing in large oak casks, careful vineyard management and sustainable practices up to organic conversion; spirits production follows a philosophy of enhancing local raw materials (Nebbiolo and Moscato pomace) and Piedmontese traditions.
