The Antica Distilleria Domenico Sibona S.p.A. is situated in the Roero zone, in the communal district of Piobesi d’Alba, a few kilometres from Alba. It was founded about a hundred years ago on the former premises of an old kiln. The distillery is located in the centre of an important wine zone, 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 licence, 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.

Dregs of pressed grapes, in the same day arriving in distillery, are distilled in such a way as to pick the greatest quality of aromas and scents. After grappa firstly age in medium size casks and then, for a longer period, age in Barriques (small capacity oak cask) made by limousin oak. After the aging every single barriques Grappa is put in the bottles.
