Nonino Prize 50 Paris

“Even if the whole world were to be destroyed, we should not lose hope, we must only think about the secret of the raindrop.”

A drop of rain, for poet Attar.
A drop of Grappa, for us.

It was the drop of the first Grappa Cru Monovitigno® Picolit that brought us here.

A story that began over 50 years ago, from the desire to show the world what grappa could be. A desire that became a dream, which led us to create the Nonino Prize: first to save and to obtain the official recognition for the ancient native Friulian vine varieties that were on the verge of extinction, and then able to anticipate six Nobel Prize winners.

Today we bring these same values to Paris together with our jury, our prize winners, our Grappas and all those who share this journey.

A new moment of encounter and sharing, where different thoughts converge, allowing every drop, together, to become a river, a lake, and an ocean.
