Distillery Information

Let yourself be surprised by the bicentennial history of a family whose name, through centuries and generations, has become synonymous with a product, an icon of an entire nation. Going as far as Bassano del Grappa, Bortolo Nardini was the victim of an accident which forced him to stop in the city. During his convalescence, he had the opportunity to get to know Bassano better and to understand its strategic importance as a commercial crossroads between the Valsugana and Venice. With a precise vision and with the tenacious desire to transform it into reality, he bought the Osteria al Ponte, today "Grapperia Nardini", to produce grappa with a still on a permanent plant and resell it. For the first time it was no longer the distiller, with his mobile alembic, who went to the farmers to distill but the farmers themselves who gave him the pomace for the production of grappa. Bortolo calls his grappa "Aquavite di vinaccia", in the Latin way without the "c", playing on the etymology that sometimes wants it as "aqua di vita" other times "aqua della vite". The first grappa in Italy was born, Grappa Nardini. Since 1779 Nardini has always been a family-run business, which became part of the exclusive club of bicentenary family businesses "Les Henokiens". A life dedicated to enhancing its territory, the cradle of a precious product still today, after more than two centuries. Today it is the 7th generation to carry on the family tradition and to spread the culture of an Italian icon in the world: Grappa Nardini.
