Quick Summary

Grappa is a dry, colorless brandy distilled from fermented grape pomace, which is the material left after pressing grapes for wine. It is an unaged, sharp-tasting spirit produced in Italy and California. The name "grappa" comes from the Italian word for grape stalk, and its origins are thought to be Germanic. Brandy, in general, is an alcoholic beverage made from distilled wine or fermented fruit mash.12
