The grape
The raw material from which Grappa is made is the grape pomace, the skin of the grape, and what is left after the grape is crushed in order to make wine. The area from where we gather the grape-pomace ranges from Bassano del Grappa to the hills surrounding Marostica and Breganze, lands historically famous for the cultivation of grape vines and for the production of Grappa. |
|
| We distill exclusively the freshest and soundest grape-pomace coming from the best wineries of our area, to obtain a Grappa distinguished by a refined balance of character and elegance because, as we often say: "The secret to distilling a great Grappa is simple: you just need fresh pomace and a hundred years of experience!" |
|
| The still of the Poli Distillery is among the oldest in use today. It consists of cauldrons completely made of copper, as in centuries gone by. Our distillation cycle is discontinuous. This means that we put the grape-pomace into the cauldrons and we distill it using steam; after about three hours we unload the cauldrons and the cycle begins again. |
 |
Since 1898 the Poli family is determined to continue a tradition and to make people understand and appreciate the hard work, the constancy but, above all, that kind of Love held in a bottle of Grappa. |

Sell for its right weight
Giovanni was a man of great moral principles: he used to say "Vendi caro ma pesa giusto" meaning "Sell for its right weight". We are faithful to his motto still today |
