Tasting Notes
Nose: Bright citrus notes of orange peel and lemon zest, backed by herbal aromas of thyme and rosemary. A hint of vanilla and cinnamon adds warmth, while a subtle woody undertone rounds out the bouquet.
Palate: Dry and crisp with a medium body. Bitter orange and grapefruit flavors dominate, balanced by gentle sweetness reminiscent of dried figs. Herbal notes of sage and wormwood provide complexity, complemented by a touch of licorice root.
Finish: Long and pleasantly bitter. Lingering notes of gentian and quinine, with a subtle spiciness from white pepper. The citrus and herbal elements persist, leaving a clean, refreshing aftertaste that invites another sip.
How It's Made
Baldoria Dry Rosso Vermouth is crafted using a unique blend of botanicals, including wormwood, gentian, and cinchona bark, which are macerated in a base of Italian white wine. What sets this vermouth apart is its innovative production method, which involves a low-temperature distillation process that helps preserve the delicate aromas of the botanicals, resulting in a more nuanced and complex flavor profile.
