THE DISTILLERY
The story of the prestigious distillery of the Marolo brothers is an example of innovation, tenacity, and great insights. It all began in the 1970s when Paolo Marolo, a young professor at the Enological School, became enthusiastic after participating in a course on herbalism and liqueurs; this is the origin of a dream that led him to connect his name with high-quality Piedmontese grappa.
In 1977, Paolo Marolo founded, along with his brother, a small distillery at the family home in Mussotto d’Alba, named after a fresco depicting Saint Teresa of Avila. In a context dominated by large industrial distilleries, Paolo reinstated the traditional small steam boiler system, which is more expensive and slower than industrial continuous de-alcoholizers but capable of ensuring smoothness and complexity to the distillate. The first experiments with Moscato pomace yielded results that exceeded expectations. Strong from the initial results achieved, Paolo then specialized in the distillation of Nebbiolo pomace, introducing, after long experimentation, acacia wood for aging.
Today, the Distilleria Santa Teresa of the Marolo brothers is run by Paolo and his son Lorenzo, who combine ancient artisanal techniques with the most modern equipment to continue pursuing the original goal: to transform the traditional product of Piedmontese grappa into a product of great excellence. The grappas of Marolo, whether white or aged, produced from pomace sourced from the pressing of the major and most characteristic wines of Piedmont, such as Barolo, Barbera, Moscato, and Arneis, now rank at the top of the grappa production in all of Northern Italy.
