The Grappa is proudly the product with which Mangilli's is created
a name of prestige.
Grappa Mangilli is a wise and dosed blended of distillates obtained
with the followings systems of distillation:
- System to discontinuous cycle, that foresees the employment
of the traditional little vapor boilers and of copper still
under the expert and careful control of the "teacher distiller"
that manually intervenes in the varied phases of the distillation,
from the loading to intermittence of the boilers to the separation
from the distillate of the heads ,rich of methylic alcohol, and
of the tails, rich of amilic oils to extract only the central part
rich of aromas and of characteristic components.
To the traditional vapor boilers present since from the beginning
of 20th century, it was installed in 1998 a new and modern plant
of the type to bain-marie.

- System to continuous cycle, that foresees
the employment of modern columns of distillation where, otherwise
from the system to discontinuous cycle, all the operations, from
the feeding of the plant to the extraction of the product, happen
without interruptions.
The distillate has good characteristics and lighter aroma of that
obtained with the discontinuous system.
Otherwise from the greatest part of the distillates that just obtained
are deprive some typical organolectical characteristic that are
conferred only by an opportune aging, instead the grappa is rich
and full of its typical aroma since from the moment of the distillation.
Nevertheless a good period of rest in neutral containers of glass
or stainless steel, confers to the grappa a harmonic refinement
and a better equilibrium of its components: for the Mangilli
Bianca the least period of rest is of six months.

The aging in wood containers, after the refinement, it
favors the chemical-physical phenomenons instead (oxidation, etc.)
with the formation of components that confers to the distillate
an aroma of great complexity and a softness in the taste; besides
the transfer of extractive substances (tannin) from the wood confers
to the distillate an amber color and new organolectical component.
The Mangilli Riserva is composed by a blended of distillates
grown old in oak barrel, the more youth of which with at least
one year of aging.
