Eligo Dell'Ornellaia Grappa Riserva Tenuta Dell'Ornellaia

Eligo Dell'Ornellaia is a fine grappa Riserva. Its light gold color with honeyed hues immediately attracts attention, while the alcoholic and spicy scents on the nose offer an elegant olfactory experience. In the mouth, the good alcohol content is softened by the long aging, with a persistent and pleasant finish. This reserve grappa is an excellent option for fans of high quality distillates.

Ornellaia is an estate with an intoxicating charm, a place where history blends with the poetry of the sea and the beauty of the surrounding nature. This corner of paradise extends between the hamlet of Bolgheri, in the municipality of Castagneto Carducci, in the province of Livorno (Tuscany), and the coast, where the sea gently laps the land.

Eligo dell'Ornellaia Grappa Riserva is the embodiment of Ornellaia's philosophy, which places scrupulous attention on the selection of grapes and on each stage of production, so that the best possible quality can be created.

In autumn, after the Ornellaia wines have been transferred to French oak barrels for ageing, the pomace is delivered to an artisanal distillery in the heart of the Tuscan countryside. Here the master distiller, endowed with extraordinary skills, extracts the delicate aromatic heart from the skins of Cabernet Sauvignon, Merlot, Cabernet Franc and Petit Verdot.

After patient distillation in small copper stills, the grappa is aged for at least three years, double the time required to obtain a Grappa Riserva, exclusively in the barrels owned by Ornellaia. Subsequently, it is blended with reserves from previous vintages to acquire greater breadth and character.

To guarantee craftsmanship, the grappa is distilled, blended and bottled in the same distillery. Thanks to its aromas, its silky texture and beautiful golden hues, Eligo dell'Ornellaia Grappa Riserva stands out for its unique origin and style, which draw inspiration from nature and which have been perfected by man .
