Grappa is the oldest and most traditional distillate of Northern Italy and is obtained by distilling the solid part of grapes, the pomace. The Nonino family has devoted itself to the art of distillation since 1897. It is in 1897 that Orazio Nonino, the forefather of the family, founded his own distillery in Rancho do Percota. In 1973 Benito and Giannola Nonino revolutionize the method of producing introducing and packaging Grappa in Italy and throughout the world. Today Nonino Distillatori is recognized as one of the best distilleries in the world by Wine Enthusiast, for their vision of redesigning a traditional distillate for the modern era.
