"Nebbiolo da Barolo" is distilled from the stills of the Francoli distillery, which is based in the Novara area, in the village of Ghemme, to be exact, surrounded by vineyards. The founding brothers of this winery come from a family of historic distillers, ever since 1875 where in Campodolcino (SO), from a rudimentary still, Luigi Guglielmo Francoli gave birth to the first drops of the product that over time has become a brand of guarantee. "Sorsi di Nebbiolo da Barolo" grappa is part, along with seven others, of the Sorsi Di Luce line, poetically described by the producers as "a source of light like the eyes of a beautiful woman."

Grappa di Nebbiolo da Barolo is a Piedmontese barrel-aged grappa derived entirely from Nebbiolo pomace from the Barolo production area. The distillate begins its ageing in oak tonneaux, then moves to smaller barrels for at least 18 months, where contact with the barrique wood allows it to refine its colour and typical notes. Intense colour that sits in shades of gold with amber undertones. The aroma is intense, distinct and typical of this ageing technique, with nuances of sweet spices and small dehydrated fruits.

An explosion of harmony on the palate accentuates the pleasure of enjoying it in company. Grappa Riserva's "Nebbiolo da Barolo" stimulates and unites all the senses, creating countless shades of light in those who taste it. Excellent for an end of a meal or for an after-dinner drink among friends who like to share taste experiences. Francoli's master distillers manage to give this grappa such finesse and elegance as to make it a meaningful sensory experience for even the finest and most delicate palates.
