Details
Visually, this vermouth captivates with a reddish-copper hue, a promise of the rich experience that awaits. On the nose, it offers a particularly rich and intense aroma, a complex blend of crushed herbs and spices extracted into a wine-based alcoholic solution. When it comes to taste, this vermouth doesn't disappoint. It's a delightful mix of caramelized sweetness, aromatic nuances, and a pleasantly bitter and persistent finish.
But what's the secret behind this aromatic elixir? Gancia Vermouth Rosso starts with a base of young wines, carefully selected to blend harmoniously with a curated array of herbs. The production process is a meticulous three-step affair. First, a delicate wine is chosen to ensure a smooth union with the herbal extracts. These herbs, some well-known and others exotic, are processed to capture their essence in a high-alcohol liquid. The final act involves blending the fortified wine, sugar, and herbal extracts, followed by filtering and a last round of refinement before bottling. With an alcohol content of 16% vol., this vermouth is as potent as it is flavorful.
So, whether you're looking to enjoy a classic Italian aperitivo or you're keen to experiment with cocktails, Gancia Vermouth Rosso is your go-to. Its rich aroma and complex flavors make it a versatile addition to any home bar. Here's to the joy of discovery, the freedom to explore your own palate, and the sheer pleasure of savoring a vermouth that's as complex as it is inviting. Salute!
