Grappa is an alcoholic beverage, a fragrant, grape-based pomace brandy of Italian origin that contains 35%
- 60% alcohol by volume. It is made by distilling the skins, pulp, seeds, & stems left over from winemaking after pressing the grapes. The flavour of grappa, like that of wine, depends on the type & quality of the grapes used, as well as the specifics of the distillation process. In Italy, grappa is primarily served as a digestivo or after-dinner drink. Its main purpose was to aid in the digestion of heavy meals. Grappa may also be added to espresso coffee to create a caffe corretto, meaning corrected coffee. Capannelle, wine producers in Gaiole in Chianti, Siena, extends over about 20 hectares.
