Alchimie d'autunno

The scent of grape skins, woody notes and herbal infusions in the distilleries of Santa Massenza

In Santa Massenza, once the grape harvest is over and the distillation of the pomace is complete, freshly made grappa begins a new journey.

In wooden barrels, it slowly develops colour, aromas and character, while medicinal herbs, roots, spices and fruits become the key ingredients of liqueurs and infusions rooted in local tradition.

Meetings with master distillers and experts, guided tours of the distilleries, sensory experiences and comparative tastings offer the chance to discover different ageing and maturation techniques.
Completing the programme are gastronomic experiences that pair autumn cuisine with grappas, liqueurs and infusions from Santa Massenza.

Eating local is good for you and for the place you're visiting.
The events of Mese del Gusto celebrate seasonality and short supply chains, the key ingredients of a more mindful approach to food.
They are also Eventi Attenti (“mindful events”): events that take practical steps to reduce energy use and waste, encourage recycling, and promote more sustainable ways of getting around.

Join in, taste, explore: every event is an invitation to choose with flavour and with greater awareness. It doesn't take much to make a difference!
