One grape variety bears the name of its creator: in 1882, Hermann Müller crossed Riesling Renano with Madeleine Royale in Thurgau, Switzerland. The globetrotter only found his true home in the Alps – nowhere does Müller Thurgau thrive better than in the Val di Cembra, where terraced steep slopes between 500 and 800 metres above sea level combine porphyry soils with extreme day-night fluctuations. It is precisely these grapes that Nonino chooses for one of its rarest cru grape brandies. Unlike grappa, the whole fruit is distilled here – peel, pulp and juice together – using the method that Benito and Giannola Nonino invented in 1984 and christened ÙE: Friulian for grape. Fermentation takes place anaerobically in stainless steel, distillation slowly in copper steam stills.

The result shows varietal freshness with notes of stone fruit and floral accents. Elegant on the palate, with lively acidity and that mineral aftertaste that only mountain grapes bring. Each mouth-blown bottle is individually numbered – a unique specimen from the highest vineyards in Italy. SUPERIORE.DE
