The Product

The Pungitopo grappa of the Premiata Distilleria Pagura is produced with a mix of white and red pomace, of local winemakers. It is a young grappa that is infused with the Pungitopo (wild Asparagus) just picked.

The wild asparagus gives the grappa a very characteristic, herbaceous and intense aroma. Excellent after a meal as a digestive. The grappa keeps the the essence of the wild asparagus unchanged over time but it is recommended to remove it once it is no longer completely covered by the liquid.

The Distillery

We are in Castions di Zoppola not far from Pordenone (Friuli Venezia Giulia): where the Premiata Distilleria Pagura has its headquarters. It is a wonderful family-run business that for 5 generations has been carrying on the tradition of grappa production. Visiting the Premiata Distilleria Pagura means entering their home, being in a historic courtyard with a wonderful internal garden with a beautiful groundwater fountain… go to the distillery page
