Vermouth

Italy- Rich and delicious, the aromas and flavors veer towards rich sweet/spicy Christmas cake, sweet cream, and vanilla extract. Carpano Bianco Vermouth should be an obvious addition to your bar.

“A light, breezy aperitif for white wine lovers. This golden-orange liquid has a tart apple and citrus scent, with a touch of honeysuckle behind that, and a honeyed flavor with a dry, faintly spiced finish. Light-bodied and drinkable, made even more so with the addition of lime juice and club soda. Pair with cheese or charcuterie” 93 pts, Wine Enthusiast

Tasting Notes
In honor of over 150 years as a premier producer of classic Vermouth di Torino, the master winemaker and herbalist at this esteemed house in Pessione, Piedmont has created a limited release of new expressions. The Ambrato is a single varietal base of local Moscato D'Asti with botanicals of cinchona bark and Chinese rhubarb, giving the floral, honeyed, nectar-like nature of the wine a spicy edge. Wonderfully well-rounded and an all around must-try.

Sweet anise and coriander aromas with citrus fruit and hints of elderflower. Complex spicy flavors on the palate are balanced with the fresh fruit flavors from the Muscat Canelli.

France- 2011 Gold Medal Winner of the San Francisco World Spirits Competition, Lillet Rose has light aromas of berries, orange blossom, and grapefruit while the taste is fresh, lively, and fruity.

Italy- Sweet and bitter with a hint of rust on the nose. The taste is initially light and sugary, in stark contrast to Cynar's dark color. The herbal/vegetal qualities really shine through on the palate. The finish is bitter, akin to a light espresso finish.

Distiller Notes
Predominant aromas of sweet citrus fruit with hints of ginger, exotic flowers and spices are supported by a framework of cinchona bark and bitter root extracts. Adds refreshing fruit flavors and crisp bitterness to a variety of cocktails. Pairs especially well with sparkling wine and aged spirits.

Starting with a California white wine base, they fortify the wine using neutral grape spirits. Then they add grape concentrate and cane sugar for a rich mouth feel and a sweet finish.
