Veneto's Signature Grape, Distilled
Grappa is Italy's pomace brandy — spirit distilled from the skins, seeds and stems left after winemaking — and a single-variety grappa like this one carries the fingerprint of one grape only. Moletto's winery sits in Motta di Livenza, in the rolling country of eastern Treviso where Prosecco DOC vineyards surround the estate. The Prosecco marc goes into copper stills, the spirit comes off clean and unaged, and the result is crystal-clear grappa that smells of the grape it came from.

Tasting Notes
Crystal clear in the glass. Fresh acacia blossom and ripe pear on the nose with apple in support; the palate is round and delicate rather than fiery, with orchard-fruit purity and a clean, harmonious finish.
How to Enjoy
Serve at room temperature in a small tulip glass after a meal — grappa's classic digestivo role. Also an elegant base for grappa-based cocktails where a clean grape spirit is wanted.
Frequently Asked Questions
What is grappa?
Grappa is an Italian pomace brandy: spirit distilled from grape marc — the skins, seeds and stems left over from winemaking. It must be made in Italy to carry the name.
What does "di Prosecco" mean on this grappa?
It means the grappa was distilled from the pomace of a single grape variety — Prosecco (Glera) — so the spirit carries that grape's floral, orchard-fruit character.
Should grappa be served cold or at room temperature?
Room temperature in a tulip glass, per tradition; chilling mutes the aromatics of a young grappa like this one.
What is the ABV of Moletto Grappa di Prosecco?
40% ABV (80 proof).
