Capovilla Grappa Di Pinot Noir Billecart Salmon Distillata 2008 Vol.45% Cl.50

Capovilla, an unrivaled master together with Luca Gargano is involved in four very special projects.

Velier's meeting with Gianni Capovilla has given birth to 4 projects:

1) The Alto Grado series of extremely rare fruit distillates.

2) The Billecart Salmon champagne pomace brandies that have just won the Gold Medal in Klagenfurt.

3) The Rhum Rhum that they produce together with Marie Galante and that was presented in 2008.

4) The Triple A Punto G grappa, the first grappa in the world produced from juicy, pure, clean, chemical-free pomace, coming from Triple A producers.

Vittorio “Gianni” Capovilla is recognized worldwide as one of the best, if not the best, distiller in the world.

An emigrant mechanic, then a technician in one of the largest winemaking materials industries, he decided thirty years ago to dedicate himself to distillation.

He has a weakness: fruit.

A maniacal and relentless search for endangered varieties and wild fruit from Romania to Vesuvius, from Val Venosta to Champagne.

Technique and heart at the service of nature, to extract the quintessence, the purity.

A taste memory like a look.

From the union of two exceptional men Antoine Billecart and Gianni Capovilla, an exceptional grappa was born, the Capovilla Rouge de Pinot Noir 2008 grappa.

The result was the two marc spirits Chardonnay and Pinot Noir which, previewed at the “World Spirit 2006” in Klagenfurt, won the gold medal!.

The Capovilla Rouge de Pinot Noir 2008 grappa is produced from the marc of the Billecart Rosè champagne.

Distilled in a bain-marie, it rests for about two years before being bottled.

The Capovilla Rouge de Pinot Noir 2008 grappa is very rare, only a few bottles are produced, only 900.
