Varietal

Vermouth

Vermouth is a fortified, aromatized wine infused with a blend of botanicals, herbs, and spices. It is made by taking a base wine, fortifying it with neutral spirits, and flavoring it with a variety of ingredients, including wormwood (Artemisia absinthium), which is legally required for vermouth, along with citrus peels, cloves, cinnamon, and chamomile. Vermouth is traditionally categorized into two main styles: Dry (white) vermouth – Crisp, herbaceous, and often floral, commonly used in Martinis. Sweet (red) vermouth – Rich, slightly bitter, with caramelized and spiced notes, essential for cocktails like the Negroni and Manhattan. Originating in Italy and France, vermouth is a key ingredient in mixology but is also enjoyed neat, over ice, or with soda as an aperitif. French vermouths are known for their dry, delicate character, while Italian vermouths tend to be richer and more herbal. Its complex balance of bitterness, sweetness, and aromatics makes vermouth a staple in both classic and modern cocktails.

Country

Italy

There are few countries in the world with a viticultural history as long or as illustrious as that claimed by Italy. Grapes were first being grown and cultivated on Italian soil several thousand years ago by the Greeks and the Pheonicians, who named Italy 'Oenotria' – the land of wines – so impressed were they with the climate and the suitability of the soil for wine production. Of course, it was the rise of the Roman Empire which had the most lasting influence on wine production in Italy, and their influence can still be felt today, as much of the riches of the empire came about through their enthusiasm for producing wines and exporting it to neighbouring countries. Since those times, a vast amount of Italian land has remained primarily for vine cultivation, and thousands of wineries can be found throughout the entire length and breadth of this beautiful country, drenched in Mediterranean sunshine and benefiting from the excellent fertile soils found there. Italy remains very much a 'land of wines', and one could not imagine this country, its landscape and culture, without it.

Region

Piedmont

Situated in the north-western part of Italy, the region of Piedmont is known worldwide and is highly respected for the quality of the wines produced there. Many of the most successful sub-regions in Piedmont produce many of the world's finest red wines, such as those made from the excellent Nebbiolo grape varietal in areas such as Barolo and Barbaresco. However, the historic wineries which typify this region use a relatively wide variety of grapes, including Dolcetto and Barbera for their red wines, which are typically aged and have a delightful velvety character. Piedmont isn't all about beautifully complex red wines, though, as it is also famed for high quality, elegant sparkling wines, notably the Asti wines made with the white Moscato grape. The region benefits from a range of terroirs which are often well expressed in the sparkling wines, and a wonderfully consistent climate ideal for vineyard cultivation.

Wine Enthusiast

The nose leads with pears and tropical fruit, plus a warming cinnamon hint, while the super-dry palate teases with Granny Smith apple tartness and racy acidity, plus a hint of bitterness. The finish is crisp and tart, with just a brush of fruit. Mix into martinis.

Winery Notes

This vermouth is straw yellow coloured with light amber shadows due to the addition of 5% of fine Marsala to the main white wine. Leaves a bitter orange taste on the palate, followed by the Gentian and the lemon peel. It is perfect to be used for Martini Cocktail, or pure on the rocks.
