Service suggestion for our Old Grape Marc spirit

Grape Marc Spirits

Originally a drink for the poorer classes, grape marcs emerged as a way to sustainably take advantage of every drop of fermentable sugar left in the precious grapes of our farm, after vinification.

For centuries, marcs have helped ease the pain of hard work and subsistence living, while also providing additional calories to overcome the cold.

History

Distillation is thought to have originated in the Middle East during the 8th century and that it may have reached Europe around the Middle Ages and that the Benedictine monks, by mastering related techniques, may be the first to work with distillation, for the preservation of medicinal plants.
