MASCHIO 903 BARRIQUE
Dedicated to Bonaventura Maschio, founder of the Gaiarine company, born in 1903, whose research and work have constituted a milestone in the field of distillation.
His method is proposed here, according to a perfect balance of different pomace, distilled in special stills.
Bouquet: delicate, spicy with notes of ripe fruit.
Taste: soft and balanced, with great persistence.
Grappa is a drink that can be classified among spirits. Being distilled, it does not have the few nutritional advantages of fermented beverages (especially wine), such as the antioxidant content. At the same time, the intake of ethyl alcohol is very high and requires an extremely low consumption.
Grappa is an alcoholic product obtained from the reuse of wine processing waste.
However, to obtain a grappa with the right organoleptic and gustatory characteristics, certain molecules typical of red grape skins must be present. Grappa is produced through a series of consecutive, irreplaceable and non-reversible operations, ranging from ensiling to bottling.
After the ensiling of the marcs and their pressing after separation from the must, they are stored in a cement or iron silo.
Distillation follows, which allows to separate the volatile components (including water and alcohol). These, evaporated with the heat, are selected and recondensed separately with the cold.
A further step is rectification, that is the process that allows you to keep the valuable components and eliminate (or reduce to the right point) the unwanted and / or harmful ones.
For most of the grappas, aging also takes place, which is applied in non-waterproofed wooden barrels for a short period (6-12 months, containers of up to 6,000 liters) or long (5-15 years, containers of up to 700 liters) . The designated premises are at a temperature of 20-25 ° C and humidity below 70%.
Must
Also called "white fermentation" is a winemaking technique that involves the immediate separation of the must from the skins, without maceration taking place. With this system it is possible to obtain white wines also from dark-skinned grapes.
Terpenes
Combinations of carbon and hydrogen atoms, the terpenes pass to grappa from the pomace through distillation and give rise to a marked series of aromas and are found with greater concertations in grappas from grape to aromatic fruit.
Acids
They are organic acids that are formed during alcoholic fermentation and ensiling of the marc. Acetic acid. In modest quantities, they help to strengthen the aggressiveness of alcohol on the tongue and benefit the taste and its scent.
Foreign
Important for their organoleptic effect. They are formed from the combination of an acid with alcohol. They play a fundamental role in the formation of the bouquet because they are responsible for pleasant olfactory and taste-olfactory sensations.
Alcohols
Alcohols are formed during alcoholic fermentation and ensiling of the marc. From a sensorial point of view they are very important: they give grappa its vegetal scents and, by marrying the acids, they give rise to esters with a fruity aroma.

Tasty Neapolitan pizza, Marco is a true professional and a welcoming and clean host, the most famous Margherita is digestible and tasty.
A pizza that really deserves it! Excellent dough and perfect combination of ingredients. Fried appetizers are delightful! Perhaps the only flaw is the slightly small and spartan restaurant, which however gives you the opportunity to observe the pizza chef at work!
Came here with 3 other friends. Had 5 pizzas and one eggplant parmigiana. There was not one piece of food left on our table. Staff was extremely friendly, fast service, and great mood inside. We felt welcomed despite not speaking any Italian, and had a great time. 5/5 highly recommend
