Sarpa Oro is simply a perfect grappa—one that reflects a remarkable evolution, from a popular spirit to a symbol of Italian drinking culture worldwide.
The name “Sarpa” comes from the Veneto dialect and means “grape pomace.” This grappa is distilled in small batches from Merlot and Cabernet Sauvignon grape pomace, then aged for 4 years in French oak barrels.
Pale gold in color. On the nose, notes of beeswax, dried apples, apricots, and brown sugar. On the palate it is fruity and nutty, with hints of cocoa, vanilla, and honey.
Serve at 18–20 °C as a digestif.
Poli Distillerie – A Legacy of Italian Grappa Passion Since 1898
It all began in 1898, when straw hat maker GioBatta Poli, driven by a passion for grappa, built a small still and began visiting local winemakers to distill the leftover grape pomace after winemaking. What started as a modest hobby soon became a family tradition, carried on by his sons and now passionately upheld by his grandson, Jacopo Poli – one of Italy’s most renowned modern grappa producers.
Craftsmanship and an Unwavering Commitment to Quality
At the Poli distillery, located in the Veneto region, five core principles guide every aspect of production:
Only fresh, healthy raw material is used – delivered daily in quantities that can be processed immediately.
The pomace is distilled without delay – never stored.
Distillation is performed using traditional copper stills and historical methods.
Every step is carried out with dedication and true craftsmanship.
Deep respect is shown to both the product and the consumer.
A Taste That Speaks for Itself
These principles enable the Poli family to produce grappas of remarkable quality – from soft and floral to more intense expressions rich in spice and fruit notes. Poli grappas and liqueurs are recognized and celebrated around the world, proudly featured on the menus of top-tier restaurants. They stand as a true symbol of Italian distilling artistry.
