The Grappa di Barbaresco Rabajà’s uniqueness is rooted in the vineyards from which it is made. Rabajà is regarded as mythical place for wine. Those who cultivate vines have developed a meticulous and almost “maniacal” level of attention and care. Each vineyard is managed to the highest standards of sustainability. In fact, it is known as “the garden” of Barbaresco, a coveted place amongst winemakers, where man and nature have reached the perfect balance of form and substance. This is the “spirit of the territory” that Marolo is always trying to capture; the invisible qualities of terroir embedded in the raw pomace by time and the art of artisanal distillation – the daughter of alchemy – that drop by drop becomes grappa. Our Grappa di Barbaresco Rabajà is the result of dual expertise. First of the winemakers who led the exceptional harvest of 2006 and second the mastery of the grappaioli who dutifully distill the work of the winemakers with care. Picked fresh and delivered directly from the winemakers, the pomace receives the most scrupulous attention. It is distilled entirely by a manually-operated bain-marie still, slowly in order to extracting the strength and power of the original aromas. Grappa di Rabajà 2006 is purposefully aged to preserve the characteristics of its terroir. Barrels that have already been used to age other grappas are chosen to diminish the impact of wood on the flavour. It is then left to evaporate, giving away its angels’ share, the amount of liquid that is naturally lost, but concentrates the flavour and aromatic properties. Attentive distillation and delicate ageing make a grappa with a refined and noble aromatic profile. It has a soft and velvety mouthfeel, the body structured by an enveloping alcohol. Warm in the mouth and fine in the nose, there is an immediate presence of the fresh and fruity notes.

Region: Piedmont

Situated in the north-western part of Italy, the region of Piedmont is known worldwide and is highly respected for the quality of the wines produced there. Many of the most successful sub-regions in Piedmont produce many of the world's finest red wines, such as those made from the excellent Nebbiolo grape varietal in areas such as Barolo and Barbaresco. However, the historic wineries which typify this region use a relatively wide variety of grapes, including Dolcetto and Barbera for their red wines, which are typically aged and have a delightful velvety character. Piedmont isn't all about beautifully complex red wines, though, as it is also famed for high quality, elegant sparkling wines, notably the Asti wines made with the white Moscato grape. The region benefits from a range of terroirs which are often well expressed in the sparkling wines, and a wonderfully consistent climate ideal for vineyard cultivation.

Country: Italy

There are few countries in the world with a viticultural history as long or as illustrious as that claimed by Italy. Grapes were first being grown and cultivated on Italian soil several thousand years ago by the Greeks and the Pheonicians, who named Italy 'Oenotria' – the land of wines – so impressed were they with the climate and the suitability of the soil for wine production. Of course, it was the rise of the Roman Empire which had the most lasting influence on wine production in Italy, and their influence can still be felt today, as much of the riches of the empire came about through their enthusiasm for producing wines and exporting it to neighbouring countries. Since those times, a vast amount of Italian land has remained primarily for vine cultivation, and thousands of wineries can be found throughout the entire length and breadth of this beautiful country, drenched in Mediterranean sunshine and benefiting from the excellent fertile soils found there. Italy remains very much a 'land of wines', and one could not imagine this country, its landscape and culture, without it.
