SPIRIT

Very much made in the pale, bitter and dry spectrum, this vermouth is a decent step up from the more traditional and commercial 'blending' vermouths. This is made from a base white wine of Cortese and Trebbiano with alcohol, sugar, water, an alcoholic infusion of herbs and roots, cardo gobbo di Nizza Monferrato and wormwood - the plant that defines Vermouth di Torino.

Wonderfully golden yellow in colour with amber reflections, the aromas and palate are expressive and elegant, with marked herbaceous notes of absinthe, cardo gobbo, velvety vanilla and a touch of chamomile. We think it's best served chilled on ice. 16% alc.
