Grappa Tasting Evening at the Italian Cultural Centre

Wednesday, November 26th, 2008

Grappa: Italy’s Elixir

Discover the refined intricacies of 6 Italian Grappas with expert, Carmen d’Onofrio Jr. of Stile Wines.

Grappa is a uniquely Italian drink. Traditionally, made from pomace, the discarded grape seeds, stalks, and stems that are a by-product of the winemaking process, Grappa has been around since the Middle Ages.  For generations, Italians have sipped this “firewater” after meals and even added a little to their morning espresso, to “correct” it. Once considered an acquired taste, popular only in Italy, Grappa, today, is making itself known around the world.
