Distilleria Bocchino

You will be introduced to a fascinating and historic place, where for over a century Grappa has been produced solely from the grape pomace of the Moscato vines in the area, thanks to the intuition of the founder Carlo Bocchino. In 1898, he developed a unique and special distillation system that enhanced the aromas, resulting in a noble and unmistakably high-quality distillate. You will embark on a journey into the world of Grappa and the history of the Bocchino family, a true distillation of passion passed down from generation to generation. You will stroll through the barrique cellar among hundreds of barriques made of different woods, where the distillates from various vintages and single-varietal Grappas rest. These unique products are the result of extensive research on quality and the blending of individual barriques, each contributing aromatic sensations to the final taste. You will come to know the passion of those who, following the tradition, dedicate themselves to selecting and distilling the finest grape pomace, a product of this marvelous territory
