Description

Marolo is one of Italy’s most niche distilleries. It was founded in 1977 in a suburb of Alba, when Paolo Marolo, formerly a herbalist teacher at the Alba wine school, partly out of passion partly for fun began distilling grape pomace from the Langa and Roero. In just a few years he created a true quality boutique! He was one of the first to select the best pomace from the finest wineries,and to distill specific vintages and crus. The method that made him so famous was bain-marie discontinuous distillation, so precisely to preserve every single characteristic of the grape of origin, and produce only a few thousand bottles. One of the youngest distilleries, but with unparalleled quality and product research.
