Berta Distilleries
In the heart of the Piedmont hills, in Casalotto di Mombaruzzo, an excellence that has rewritten the history of Italian grappa is born: Berta Distilleries. Founded in the 1950s by Paolo Berta, heir to a family of pharmacists and winemakers, the company is today led by brothers Gianfranco and Enrico, guardians of a tradition that for over seventy years has combined the art of distillation, elegance, and passion.
From the beginning, the mission was clear: not to succumb to quantity, but to pursue absolute quality. A counter-trend choice, especially in the decades of the economic boom, which has allowed Berta to establish itself as a reference point for those seeking something more in grappa: a soul, a story, a territory.
Each Berta label is the result of a meticulous process: selection of the best pomace, slow distillation in discontinuous steam alembics, long aging in fine woods. The result? Distillates of extraordinary aromatic finesse, intense yet harmonious, capable of captivating the most demanding palates. Great classics like “Elisi,” “Tre Soli Tre,” or “Paolo Berta” are not just grappas, but liquid tales of dedication and style.
Available on Vino45, Berta grappas represent the pinnacle of Italian distillation: a sensory journey through time, culture, and the identity of a unique territory.

Via Giusti, 34 - Frazione. Casalotto - 14046 Mombaruzzo (AT), Italy
Color: bright amber with golden hues reminiscent of sunset light. The prolonged stay in oak casks imparts a warm, deep glow with highlights leaning toward antique copper, striking a refined balance between clarity and chromatic intensity.
Olfactory: on the nose it opens with enveloping notes of vanilla and honey, woven with hints of toasted almond and sweet tobacco. Accents of dried fruit—hazelnut and walnut—emerge, along with a gentle spiciness of clove, accompanied by a whisper of leather and elegant woodiness. The aromatic profile is complex, layered and well-harmonized, with sustained olfactory persistence.
Taste: on the palate it reveals a warm, soft entry supported by a full, velvety body. The flavor confirms the vanilla notes, echoing a sweetness that is never cloying, while the dry fruit character unfolds into tastes of caramelized plum and fig. The finish is long and dry, with a subtle tannic edge that cleanses the palate, leaving a lingering aftertaste of sweet spices and finely integrated wood.
