Distillation and production

Production method

Artisanal production with a discontinuous distillation cycle: small batches of pomace are distilled using a low-pressure, low-temperature direct-steam system in copper boilers. Grappa is first rested in inert containers (steel/glass) and, for aged versions, subsequently matured in wooden vessels.

Distillation

Discontinuous direct-steam cycle conducted at low pressure and low temperature with small copper boilers; small-batch production to preserve aromas and quality.

Ageing

Initial rest in inert containers (steel/glass) to soften edges; for aged versions maturation in wooden vessels for periods typically around 12–18 months (depending on the label).

Producer history Fratelli Brunello

Founded in 1840 in Montegalda (Vicenza), Fratelli Brunello is a multi-generational family tradition. The distillery grew as an artisanal business, maintaining historic production practices while gradually expanding its product lines (single-varietal grappas, aged expressions and special distillates). In recent decades family management has introduced technical innovations without sacrificing the company’s historical identity.

Production philosophy

Enhance raw materials and the territory through artisanal processing: careful selection of pomace, controlled small-batch production and a balance between tradition and modern technical interventions. The company emphasizes time, territory, tradition, typicality and talent as guiding principles.

Territory

Montegalda (Province of Vicenza), Veneto region, Italy. The distillate is strongly linked to the Venetian grappa tradition.

Awards and recognitions
