Gift Box Vassoio 2 btl. + 4 glasses Sibona
In the Vasoyo gift box you will find:
A bottle of Grappa Riserva Botti da Madeira Sibona
A special Grappa Riserva from Moscato, already aged for two years in oak, then aged for a further 2 years in oak barrels from the island of Madeira, which were previously used to age Madeira's most prestigious wineries. The fascinating and fruity aroma, combined with the rich and refined taste with a floral finish, are reminiscent of the Madeira previously contained in these casks.
The Moscato grape was selected during the vintage from Sibona. It is distilled exclusively on site, in copper stills, using all the expertise of oenologists and master distillers. Long ageing in stainless steel tanks, initially for two years in medium-capacity oak barrels and then in Madeira barrels for a further two years (a total of four years in oak).
A bottle of Grappa Botti da Rum Sibona
The special Grappa Riserva, which has already been aged for two years in oak, is then aged for 24 months in casks previously used to age the rums of some of the most prestigious distilleries. The rich, subtle bouquet with spicy notes and the elegant, distinct flavour with hints of coffee and vanilla and a persistent finish are very similar to that of the rum previously stored in these casks.
The gins (mainly from Dolcetto, Barbera and Nebbiolo) are from grapes selected during the harvest. It is distilled exclusively on site, in copper stills, using all the expertise of oenologists and master distillers.

Distilleria Sibona
The Antica Distilleria Sibona is located in the Roero zone, in the communal district of Piobesi d’Alba, a few kilometers from the city of Alba. The distillery is located in the center of an important wine area, where the most typical vines from Piedmont are cultivated: Nebbiolo vine from which Barolo, Barbaresco and Roero wines are created according to their own zones of production, besides Barbera, Dolcetto, Moscato, Chardonnay, Arneis and Brachetto vines. Sibona is one of the historical distilleries in the Piedmont region and can boast the oldest distillation license, the N° 1, issued by UTF (the official institution that regulates all the operations having to do with distilleries). This is a synonym for a great past and prestige. From its origins, Sibona distillery has handcrafted its “grappas” from single vine varieties. The distillation process consists of vapor production from fresh marc soon after it arrives in the distillery. Originally, distillation was carried out by means of an old locomotive, which, in time, gave way to copper alembics. Marc is distilled no sooner it arrives in the distillery, which allows the extraction of the grape’s full aroma. Besides the selection of the best marc of the zone, Sibona’s grappas reach high quality levels thanks to accurate distillation, constant updating and improvement of the equipment, the experience of two oenologists who have been working in distillation for years, the elimination of the first and last portions of the distillates, and last, but not least, a long ageing period in barrels, which renders the grappas not only soft and pleasant but also more complex and aromatic expression. The distillery uses a variety of cask types, such as port, sherry, madeira, whisky, rum and sauternes casks, with which it produces its special grappa reserves, including the XO grappa aged for over 6 years in French oak.
