The Bertagnolli Distillery is the oldest Distillery in Trentino Alto Adige founded in 1870 by Giulia de Kreutzenberg, of Austrian aristocratic descent, and the pharmacist Edoardo Bertagnolli of Mezzocorona in the north of Italy.
Today the distillery is managed by the fourth generation of the family Bertagnolli, represented by the cousins Livia and Beppe.
The Distillery is the first distillery with “waterbath” system in Europe to fully automate the entire production process throughout the very delicate distillation procedure. The computer controls all the temperature inside the alembic, the selection column and the refrigeration column and allows to establish for each grape variety, his own temperature and time of cooking, as an artisan tailor. The Bertagnolli Alembic with “watherbath” system enable to maintain and transmit to the Grappa all the taste and original flavours belonging to the grape, and to obtain a Grappa really high in quality. The alcoholic content at this point is 72% but is reduced to 42% with the addition of distilled water, before to be bottled.
Grappa Bertagnolli is a pure clean product, high in quality and ideal as digestive and basis for the cocktails. Belonging to the Trentino Institute of Grappa, all the production is under strictly controls: that means no chemical addition but just natural products.
Thank you to passion, care and experience, Bertagnolli products are winning the Italian Alembic Award with gold medals since 1989, as International Spirit Challenge, as Destillata and Internationaler Spiritousen Wettbewerb, that awarded in 2008 Grappa Koralis as “Grappa of the Year” over 600 products.
