Villa Vanzetti holds Jacopo Poli for a night

Grappa. Spirito Italiano and Gradi di carta books presented

Loads of interested people made it to Villa Vanzetti in Colognola ai Colli last february 20th 2015 where the presentation of “Grappa-Spirito Italiano” and “Gradi di carta” took place.

Both authors, Jacopo Poli and Valerio Bigano, presented their works to around 80 guests occupying the hall and three different types of Grappa (young, aromatic and flavoured) were offered to them.

 

Thanks to a collection of pictures of old bottles, “Grappa. Spirito Italiano” tells the reader about the evolution Grappa has undergone from the first years of the 20th century until the birth of industrial distillation.

Invoices and original documents coming from over 120 distilleries and liqueur producers (many of which have now closed) are featured in “Gradi di carta” .

Enjoy your reading.
