The story of the Poli family of Schiavon
is the story of many families from the Veneto region who settled on the Asiago plateau in the late Middle Ages to clear and cultivate the land. Families that towards the end of the 19th century descended to the plains, where it was easier to conduct productive and commercial activities. This is what the Poli family did, and in the space of five hundred years, from their native Gomarolo, they moved three times, covering a total of eighteen kilometres, to get to Schiavon, where they still reside today. A craft distillery founded in 1898, it is the only Italian distillery selected by Lonely Planet as one of the 10 craft distilleries in the world worth visiting.
Description
On the occasion of Poli Distillerie's 125th anniversary, the Poli family decided to express their gratitude to their historical collaborators.
This first special edition of Sarpa Oro is dedicated to Bruno Paietta, our master cooper.
Bruno worked in the distillery for more than 30 years, contributing to its growth, always putting his heart into it. "He knew how to do everything, but his real talent was taking care of the barrels and vats; his kingdom was the underground cellars where around 4,000 barriques now reside". Sarpa Oro is a simply perfect Grappa; it encapsulates all the great evolution of this distillate: from popular product to symbol of Italy in the world.
