Vecchia Scuola Red Vermouth di Torino IGP

Grape: Vermouth
Vintage: NV
Type: White

The Vecchia Scuola Red Vermouth di Torino IGP presents a deep amber-red color and offers a complex bouquet of bright citrus peel, vanilla, cola, and stemmy herbs like rosemary and thyme, balanced by the mandatory bitterness of wormwood. The palate is juicy and velvety, featuring a harmonious interplay between the rich sweetness of beet sugar, notes of vanilla and rhubarb root, and a persistent, lightly smoky bittersweet finish, making it robust for cocktails yet elegant enough for sipping. In accordance with the IGP, the production uses Piedmontese white wines, which are fortified with neutral grain spirit, then blended with individually steeped botanicals including local wormwood, gentian, and rhubarb, among others, and sweetened with beet sugar before being rested in stainless steel tanks for up to two months prior to bottling.
