GRAPPA ALEXANDER PROSECCO

Alexander is a prestigious name given to a wide range of high-quality mono-variety grappas, made from the marc of selected grapes. The best Italian grape varieties have been chosen to fully satisfy the palates of distillate connoisseurs. Uve d'Alexander is a name that over time has developed a prestigious reputation and is the guarantee of superior-quality eaux-de-vie.

CHARACTERISTICS

The name Prosecco calls to mind the famous wine, expression of happiness and poetry. The aromatic marc obtained from the typical yellow-green grapes of the vine Glera is distilled following Sandro Bottega's method when it is still fresh and vinous. The resulting grappa is then refined inside stainless steel containers for 3 to 6 months, in order to allow the different aromas to blend.
