Bocchino – Cantina Privata Grappa 21 anni

The history of the Bocchino distillery begins in 1898, in Canelli, in the cellars dug into the tuff of the hills, when Carlo Bocchino decided to differentiate and focus on quality using only one type of marc, that of Moscato, and developed a particular distillation system that allowed to enhance the aromas.
The careful selection of raw materials is still today the strength of the company which for more than a century has been committed to the selection and distillation of the best pomace from the most suitable areas. Each grappa will surprise you with its uniqueness.
The Private Cellar Collection is a selection of the best grappas, aged in oak barriques. Production is limited and each bottle is precisely numbered.
The 21 year old Grappa is a coupage made up of 65% nebbiolo grappa from Barolo and Barbaresco and 35% of Moscato d’Asti grappa, it ages for at least 12 years in barrique and then bottle, to obtain a surprising distillate , excellent aroma, great complexity and softness.

Productive Notes:Distillation in discontinuous alembic still. Aging in barriques for 12 years. One year before being bottled, the distillate is decanted from the barriques into a large oak barrel, so that the various spirits can slowly harmonize.
