The company is led by Gianola Nonino, wife of Benito Nonino—the great-grandson of Orazio Nonino (the fourth generation), who led the company to achievements and made its Nonino Grappa famous among the celebrities of Italy.[2][3] Nonino has won several prizes, and innovated in the field of grappa production. In 1973, Nonino became the first company to produce a commercial grappa from a single grape variety by creating a liquor using only the Picolit grape. In 1984, the company produced the first whole-grape distillate, which they marketed as Ue.

Nonino also founded the International Nonino Prize [it] literary prize. The prize was founded in 1975.[4]


Serving suggestions

Grappa bottles should be stored upright.[5] Usually, Italian households serve grappa frozen, giving it an icy, crisp taste, while the Instituto Nazionale Grappa recommends serving young grappa at between 9 and 13 degrees Celsius, and riserva at around 17 degrees. [6]

Grappa is typically served in Italy as a "digestive" (after-dinner drink), to aid in the digestion of heavy meals.[7] It is often also used as a folk remedy in Italy for a toothache, bronchitis, rheumatism, or indigestion.[7]


International Nonino Prize


Nonino also founded the International Nonino Prize [it], originally designed to award and preserve Friulian traditions but which has developed into a prestigious literary prize.[8] The prize was founded in 1975.[4]
