Product description
The history of the Marcati house began in 1919, when the brothers Pietro and Luigi, after returning from the Great War, took over the historic Veronella pharmacy. Pietro, enterprising and boldly looking to the future, took up the production of alcohols, using centuries of knowledge. Even the crisis in 1929 did not break the founder's spirit and dreams, Pietro decided to move to Verona, where he established the company's first industrial plant. Another blow - World War II devastated the company's plantings, but again in 1946 the company resumed its activity, when Giuseppe - Pietro's son, continued his father's work with no less determination. After another 10 years of activity, the company's headquarters was moved to Sommacampagna, where, thanks to the consolidation of the activities, the Marcati house entered the economic boom of the 1960s with full readiness, allowing the whole world to get to know its extraordinary products. In 1978, when the old company was taken over by the third generation, another leap in quality occurred – the company bought prestigious brands and boldly faced the challenges of new markets and globalization.
Today, this initially small, family-owned company is present in over 40 countries around the world, cultivating traditions in the production of liqueurs and spirits, but unequivocally remaining open to new trends and experiments. Faith and courage have allowed the company to develop for over 100 years, focusing on tradition, quality and innovation. All this together creates the soul that we can feel in the outstanding products of the Marcati house.
Marcati Grappa Amarone 1993 / 40% / 0.5l
High-quality grappa produced from grape pomace used to produce Amarone. All the ingredients used for distillation are carefully selected to choose those that best reflect the character of the grape variety and the production tradition of the Marcati house. After distillation, it matured in oak barrels. The whole comes from the harvest of only one vintage. On the nose, it is very elegant and structured, but at the same time intense, full of notes of chocolate and tobacco, with accents of red fruits. On the palate, smooth and velvety, elegantly combining the flavors of chocolate and vanilla with balanced acidity and well-integrated alcohol. The finish is subtle and pleasant, with a fruity aftertaste and an accent of spices.
Perfect as a digestif after a meal, served at 16 degrees. It works well as an addition to desserts with a lot of chocolate.
