Softness, round taste and enveloping aroma. These are the qualities of Anfora, a Grappa that brings with it all the qualities of traditional aging in wood with the particularity that its rest does not take place in the barrel but, precisely, in the amphora. A new technique that uses one of the oldest containers known to man, terracotta pots useful for transporting and storing wine, oil, honey and other foodstuffs.

The amphorae we have chosen are a blend of clay and clay, materials that come from Montelupo and Impruneta, Tuscan towns known since the Middle Ages for the manufacture and craftsmanship of ceramics and terracotta. An innovative technique for the distillates that we wanted to experiment, obtaining excellent results: the micro oxygenation, double compared to that which occurs with the use of the barrel, enriches the Grappa in elegance and softness, thus giving the characteristics of aging without the classic taste of wood.

Anfora is a Grappa made up of a blend of pomace from native Trentino vines: 80% Teroldego, Marzemino and Merlot vines; 20% Chardonnay, Müller Thurgau and Moscato vines that give it the typical and unmistakable aromas and flavors of this territory.
