Tasting of grappa, speck and cheeses at the Distilleria Bertagnolli

Founded back in 1870 at Mezzacorona (Trento) by the noblewoman Giulia de Kreutzenberg and the pharmacist Edoardo Bertagnoli, the multiple award winning Distilleria Bertagnoli specializes in the production of grappa and spirits certified by the Istituto Tutela Grappa del Trentino. This precious estate has been passed down and maintained for generations with passion and devotion.

The Distilleria Bertagnoli is located in the Piana Rotaliana Königsberg and runs its own production chain: from the selection of the grapes at the very beginning to the proper distilation of the raw ingredients to the bottling of the grappa and spirits. The "pure hearted" Bertagnolli grappa is full of perfections from the viewpoint of preserving and prioritizing only the best aromatic and sensorial components to create its top quality final product.
