Alexander Grappa 750ML

Experience the artistic soul of Northern Italy with Alexander Grappa, an ultra-refined expression that completely elevates Italy’s most iconic traditional distillate. Developed in 1987 under the creative brilliance of dynamic entrepreneur Sandro Bottega, the Alexander range was explicitly designed to meet the palates of a sophisticated new generation of spirits drinkers. It smoothly transforms what was historically a rustic folk spirit into an elegant, world-class luxury beverage.

Produced by the famed Distilleria Bottega in the heart of the scenic Veneto region—the undisputed birthplace of premium grappa—this spirit is a masterclass in purity. Alexander Grappa is crafted from the fresh, aromatic pomace (grape skins and seeds) of the region's finest vines, including highly prized Prosecco grapes. The raw material is distilled using traditional copper steam alembic stills operated under vacuum conditions. This low-temperature, bain-marie heating process protects the delicate, volatile grape aromas from scorching, ensuring an incredibly soft, rounded mouthfeel with none of the harsh burn associated with lower-tier grappas.

What makes Alexander Grappa truly legendary, however, is its presentation. Each 750ml bottle is a stunning piece of hand-blown artwork created by master craftsmen at the Bottega family's own glassmaking facility. Channeling Venetian glassblowing traditions that date back to the 1400s, these gorgeous, sculptural bottles turn this premium Italian grappa into an unforgettable centerpiece for your collection.

Tasting Notes

• Appearance: Colorless, completely transparent, and crystal clear.

• Aroma (Nose): Remarkably clean, fragrant, and expressive. It opens with intense, fresh fruit scents of ripe pear, golden apple, and banana, balanced beautifully by a delicate background of wildflowers and fresh garden herbs.

• Palate: Powerfully elegant yet delightfully soft on the tongue. It offers a complex and refreshing wave of crisp orchard fruits and honeyed grapes, showing a perfectly balanced structure and a complete absence of aggressive heat.

• Finish: Long, crisp, and harmonious. It leaves a persistent retro-olfactory sensation of fresh fruit and subtle herbaceous tones that fade cleanly.

Serving Suggestions & Italian Traditions

In Italy, grappa is a cherished institution closely tied to hospitality and camaraderie. Alexander Grappa is highly versatile and serves as the ultimate conclusion to a great meal.

• The Digestif: Serve it slightly chilled (around 50°F to 54°F) in a traditional tulip-shaped slang glass. Sipping it neat after a heavy meal of savory meats or rich cheeses beautifully aids digestion.

• The Caffè Corretto: Follow the locals of Veneto and Friuli by adding a splash of Alexander Grappa directly into a hot shot of espresso, or use it to rinse the remaining warm coffee sugars from the bottom of your cup (Resentin).

• Elegant Pairings: This clear eau-de-vie pairs magnificently with premium dark chocolate, cocoa-based pastries, or dried fruits like figs, dates, and raisins.
