The Nonino Sisters win the Guido Carli Prize for entrepreneurial merit!

It all happened in a while; it seems like yesterday that we were little girls with our parents in the distillery: Grappa is such a part of our lives that it has become a member of the family, a fourth sister. 
And today, after all the love we have put into making Grappa known and appreciated, we are taken as an example of entrepreneurial merit by the prestigious Guido Carli Prize, now in its fifteenth edition.
We have found a way to safeguard and defend the Grappa revolution, the creation of the first Monovitigno® Grappa, born with our Mother and Father, Giannola and Benito Nonino, on December 1st 1973, and to add our part to this unbelievable story that we call Nonino.
With the strength of a passion handed down from generation to generation and which has become ours, we have opened new markets, made the Nonino Prize grow, believed in forgotten products and created new distillates, paving the way for what will be the future of Italian spirits: Grappa in cocktails!
We are proud, happy and excited by this acknowledgement, which reconfirms a tradition that has been alive for 127 years and which regenerates and renews itself.
Because tradition does not mean honoring the ashes, but keeping the flame alive.
Thank you!
