Marolo Grappa di Barolo offers subtle vanilla and cocoa notes shaped by four years of oak aging. Presented in a 375ml half bottle, this Italian spirit brings together Nebbiolo pomace from Barolo and the character of seasoned French oak.
Producer & Production
Barolo producers supply the pomace for Marolo’s aged Barolo grappas. This bottling matures for four years in French oak barriques previously used to age Sicilian Marsala wine. The wood contributes the grappa’s color and adds another dimension to its flavor and texture.
Tasting Notes
Subtle tones of vanilla and cocoa complement the oak-aged character. Time in barrique gives the spirit added depth on the palate, making it a thoughtful choice for sipping after a meal.
Producer Description
