In Nimis, the G. Ceschia Distillery boasts over 100 years of tradition in the distillation of Ramandolo grape marc. It has always been a champion of the Friulian art of distillation, implementing its methods with unwavering passion. Ramandolo wine is made using Verduzzo grapes, one of the oldest vine varieties in the region and the first to have been granted a Controlled and Guaranteed Designation of Origin status in Friuli. Already on the wine list served in the Council of 1409 attended by Pope Gregory XII, the Friuli Verduzzo Ramandolo clone is an ancient vine, cultivated long before the arrival of the Romans in Friuli. With the Roman settlement Castrum Nemas, they gave their name to the current Nimis. The company’s history began in Nimis in 1886 when Giacomo Ceschia started his activity as a distiller for the winegrowers in the area with one of the first travelling stills. Up to then, they let the marc ferment at least three weeks, covered with three layers of leaves, earth and ash, in vats or sealed barrels. Today the travelling still is just a memory while Ceschia grappa continues to be distilled with the original recipe of 1886, always with the highest quality raw ingredients. Today the recently renovated historic distillery opens its doors to enthusiasts and the curious with an interesting tour in a cosy and welcoming atmosphere. The entire range of Ceschia Grappas and Distillates and a selection of typical Friuli gastronomic products are on sale for those who wish to buy them. There is also a wide selection of Ramandolo Controlled and Guaranteed Designation of Origin wines.
