Classic-method distillates | DOMENIS 1898
About DOMENIS 1898
Based in charming Cividale del Friuli, the DOMENIS 1898 distillery in the foothills of the Friuli hills has distinguished itself over time for the production of classic-method distillates, such as grappas and bitters, as well as modern mint and honey gins.
Their story began as far back as 1898. Using an ancient and secret production method, Domenis distils a variety of raw materials: white pomace, black pomace and fruit. The grappa produced is renowned as 'historic' for its exceptional organoleptic characteristics, which clearly distinguish it from other distillates of the time.
What do DOMENIS 1898 do?
During harvest time, more than 300 Friulian wineries select the best raw materials with dedication and care, inspired by their love for the land and their profound knowledge of its fruits. The pomace, both white and black, is preserved following strict rules developed through years of experience, thus maintaining its characteristic fragrance. Picked very fresh and placed in silos, they are rigorously protected from the air until the moment of distillation.
One of the distinguishing factors is the processing method, supported by a system perfected by the Domenis: a discontinuous system made entirely of copper, comprising 8 direct steam stills, designed to guarantee maximum perfection. The marc is loaded into the cauldrons, the way is opened to steam and distillation begins through so-called 'crushes'. This slow and onerous process extracts the best aromas from the raw material, which are then transferred to the distillation column, the heart of the plant built according to specific parameters and patented by Domenis.
In figures, this means around 3,000 tonnes of raw material produced per year, transformed into around 500,000 bottles of top-quality distillates. Distillation is a mix of technology, environment and, above all, the human factor: each still is a unique piece, customised by each distiller. The company in Cividale also follows this philosophy, with the DOMENIS1898 master distillers guiding the production process with a unique sensitivity. Like expert pilots, they know how to adapt their system to the type of raw material and the weather conditions, imprinting the grappa with a unique sensory profile, the fruit of their passion and tradition.
DOMENIS1898 grappa is recognised for its refinement and prestige, but also for its ability to be pleasantly convivial, with infinite aromatic nuances. The company is dedicated to the consumer, both expert and neophyte, bringing them closer to the quality, style and harmonious balance of its products.
DOMENIS1898 has always worked to enrich its production with lines of spirits that captivate and enthuse: the Historic line, which has become a timeless classic, Blanc and Neri di Domenis, which reserves intense sensations and fragrances typical of vines such as Cabernet, Sauvignon, Chardonnay, Refosco, Ribolla Gialla, Schioppettino and Moscato, and the Futura line, which anticipates new trends.
Attentive to taste and to different needs and sensitivities, DOMENIS1898 is the only distillery in Italy to produce Kosher grappa and a line of spirits and liqueurs conforming to biblical and rabbinic norms. In addition, it has developed the Organic collection, which includes surprisingly tasty proposals such as Grappa alla Ruta and Aghemîl, a honey grappa liqueur.
