The molecules responsible for this sensory identity are called terpenes and very few grape varieties, the so called “aromatic berries” are rich in them:\u003cspan\u003e \u003c\/span\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eMoscato, Traminer, Fragola (Isabella) Grape\u003c\/strong\u003e.  I will stop here, because all other varieties are semi-aromatic, if not even “non aromatic”, and therefore difficult to identify unless you have a highly trained palate.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe first distillation gave excellent results, although the yield was very small.  My father, who could not understand why I was wasting my time on this, would ask me at each “cotta” (a distillation cycle): “how much are you getting?”, knowing full well that white grape marc yields very little alcohol.  \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e“ \u003cem\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eUn po’…\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cspan\u003e \u003c\/span\u003e”\u003c\/em\u003e\u003cspan\u003e \u003c\/span\u003e(a little) I would answer, trying to hide the embarrassment for a homeopathic yield.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eAfter several “cottas” and several “un po’…” I filled up a small tank and when Mr. Valente, the excise officer, removed the seals, my father came up casually to the tank, but then dipped a finger into the Grappa and rubbed a few drops on the palm of his hand: “Good, this Grappa, by dint of PO’ you finally did it…..”.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThat’s how this line got its name, extending over the years to other varieties, including Traminer, Merlot and Pinot.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Winebow, Inc.","offers":[{"title":"750ml","offer_id":44448465780849,"sku":"PoliMorbida700","price":12.9,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0699\/5407\/6785\/files\/jytvzior8jih_073a3241-242d-4c0f-b6b7-140fb1ff0ea7.jpg?v=1788460692","url":"https:\/\/cellar-us.com\/products\/jacopo-poli-po-di-poli-morbida-moscato-grappa-700ml-njf4wm","provider":"CELLAR","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
