About this product

Pure Marche Elegance.
There’s a rare beauty in Verdicchio when it’s distilled with Marolo’s signature finesse, and this collaboration with the iconic Villa Bucci estate captures that magic flawlessly. Grappa di Verdicchio is naturally delicate, but Marolo coaxes out an unexpected depth — turning a famously crisp white grape into a spirit with shimmering aromatics and gentle, velvety texture. Each sip reveals layers of citrus, white flowers, and subtle herbal notes, reflecting the sun-drenched hills and mineral-rich soils of Marche where the grapes are grown.

This grappa is more than a digestif; it’s a journey into the heart of Italian winemaking and distilling craftsmanship. The estate-grown grapes are harvested at peak ripeness, and distilled immediately in Marolo’s bain-marie pot stills, ensuring that every nuance of the Verdicchio grape is preserved. The result is a spirit that is elegant yet expressive, light yet characterful — a perfect introduction to artisanal Italian grappa for those in Ireland who appreciate finesse, authenticity, and a genuine sense of place.

Whether enjoyed alone after dinner, paired with delicate desserts, or incorporated into a refined cocktail, this grappa brings a slice of Marche’s charm into the home. Its approachable yet sophisticated style makes it ideal for both seasoned grappa enthusiasts and newcomers seeking a bright, aromatic Italian spirit.
