Capovilla defines his delicious grappas as the noble expression of a "poor" product.

The summer muscatel pear distillate is a fruit distillate of muscatel pear obtained by double-pass distillation in small copper stills in a bain-marie.

The small Moscatello pears are distilled in a bain-marie at 103°C, an ideal temperature to allow both a long process and perfect preservation of the aromatic bouquet.

Vittorio has made the excellence of the raw materials and the purity of the distillates his true reason for living.

Capovilla's Summer Moscatello Pear Distillate is soft, intense and powerful, obtained from top quality South Tyrolean Moscatello pears,

These are small high-quality pears, with a red-orange shaded skin, a sweet flavour, an intense aroma reminiscent of Moscato grapes, and a firm and crunchy pulp grown in Trentino Alto Adige.

Vittorio Capovilla selects only the best Moscatello pears from Trentino.

The pears are destemmed and fermented as is done with red wines, at the end of the fermentation the whole fermented must is distilled.

This pear distillate is colorless, limpid and crystalline.

The Capovilla di Pera distillate of the honey obtained is full of aromas, perfumes and in the mouth it is an explosion of sweetness.
