One of the worldās only vodkas created entirely from grapes, CirocĀ® Ultra-Premium is simply unique. The name is derived from the combination of two French words, ācimeā meaning peak or summit and "roche" meaning rock. True to its roots, CirocĀ® Mauzac Blanc grapes stem from the high-altitude vineyards in Gaillac, France overlooked by the stony village walls of Cordes-sur-Ciel. Historically, vodka has been made from natural and local sources of fermentable sugars and starches. CirocĀ® is innovative in its use of cold maceration, fermentation and storage processes. Until now, only the top fine wine producers implemented these practices.
