Producer Info:
Founded in 1977 in Alba, Italy, proprietor and head distiller Paolo Marolo creates his grappa by following two simple rules: source superior, single varietal pomace and press it as soon as possible. Freshness is so essential to Paolo that he keeps his discontinuous “Bain Marie” copper stills running around the clock during the harvest season.
The discontinuous distillation method is more expensive than the mod- ern, automated alternative and requires a great deal of experience and confidence on the part of the distiller. However, this traditional approach is favored because it allows him to manually control the pace and evolution of the distillation. Over the years, Paolo has successfully developed key relationships with wineries throughout Italy to secure the finest pomace for Grappa Marolo.
