Location
Bepi Tosolini's Distillery sits among vineyards in the shadow of the Friulian Alps mountains with the Slovenian border 17 miles (27km) to the east, halfway between the Austrian border to the north and the Adriatic Sea and the important port city of Trieste 55 miles (90 km) to the west.
Importantly for a grappa distillery, this is one of the most prestigious and regarded Italian wine regions with plentiful supplies of grape must available from the nearby Collio, Colli Orientali and Grave del Friuli DOC areas. Indeed, the Tosolini family say, "The sun, the air and our land, Friuli, are the main ingredients for our products."
