The pomace

"raw material" born from the earth

The grape-pomace or marc is the solid remains of grapes after pressing for wine by the wine cellar. It is essentially the pulp, peel, seeds and stalks remaining from the pressed grape.

The use of pomace, separated from the stalks, takes place in accordance with stict selection criteria.

The working process of the grape-pomace is different according to the type of pomace, if it's from white or from red grape.

The sweet (white) pomace is brought to a controlled fermentation while still fresh and rich in must, to preserve intact the typical scents and aromas which will characterize the final produce.

The fermented (red) pomace is collected from the winery after a thorough quality control and distilled at once.

Conscious that only quality pomace can lead to great grappas, the Bertagnollis reserve their precious "raw material" the attention and care which are required to keep unchanged its typical features.
