Why GRAPPINO?

Around 1870, grappas were produced as rural rough brandies, intended mainly for farmers who received rent in kind from the owners of the vineyards, i.e., wine pulp. Farmers burned this often inferior matolin for their schnapps, mainly to survive the harsh winter season in the Trentino region. 

With the establishment of the Premiata Distilleria Bertagnolli in 1870, they tried to reach the Austrian Habsburg court with their grappa. However, they had to go the route of first-class fresh, pleasant clean grappa. Therefore, they often gave the winegrowers a very difficult task. Deliver fresh matolin to the distillery, still full of fruit juice. 

Grappino is an example of the so-called "grappičky", pleasant, fresh grappa with a long tradition.
