What is Baldoria Dry Vermouth?

Baldoria Dry Vermouth stands out with its unique blend of 30 botanicals, including locally foraged ingredients from the Italian Alps. Interestingly, this vermouth undergoes a 30-day maceration process in stainless steel tanks, which is significantly longer than most vermouths, resulting in a more complex and nuanced flavor profile.

Why do we love Baldoria Dry Vermouth?

Baldoria Dry Vermouth stands out for its unique blend of 30 botanicals, including rare ingredients like Amalfi lemon peel and Ligurian chinotto, creating a complex and aromatic profile that elevates any cocktail. Unlike many mass-produced vermouths, Baldoria is crafted in small batches using a base of Trebbiano and Catarratto wines from Sicily, resulting in a fresher, more vibrant expression that cocktail enthusiasts will appreciate.

How do you drink Baldoria Dry Vermouth?

Baldoria Dry Vermouth shines in classic aperitif-style cocktails, but it's equally delightful sipped neat or over ice with a twist of lemon. This versatile vermouth is perfect for warm summer evenings, pairing beautifully with light appetizers like olives, nuts, or seafood dishes that complement its crisp, herbal profile.

Tasting Notes

How It's Made

Fun Facts

Product Details

Nose: Bright citrus notes of lemon peel and orange zest, balanced by herbal aromas of thyme and rosemary. Subtle hints of vanilla and chamomile add depth.

Palate: Dry and crisp with a medium body. Flavors of white grapefruit and lemon dominate, complemented by gentian root bitterness and wormwood. Hints of coriander and cardamom provide warmth and complexity.

Finish: Long and clean with lingering citrus and herbal notes. A pleasant bitterness reminiscent of grapefruit pith persists, balanced by a touch of honey sweetness. Leaves the palate refreshed and ready for another sip.

Baldoria Dry Vermouth is crafted using a unique "cold infusion" method, where carefully selected botanicals are steeped in Italian white wine for several weeks at low temperatures. This gentle process preserves the delicate aromas and flavors of the herbs and spices, resulting in a beautifully balanced and nuanced vermouth with bright, fresh notes.

Baldoria Dry Vermouth is made with a secret blend of 30 botanicals, including a rare variety of wormwood that's hand-harvested from a single hillside in Piedmont, Italy. This specific wormwood is said to impart a uniquely complex bitterness that sets Baldoria apart from other vermouths.

The recipe for Baldoria Dry Vermouth was discovered in an antique safe during the renovation of a 17th-century palazzo in Turin. The formula, dating back to 1837, was found alongside a collection of love letters between a nobleman and a local herbalist.

Unlike most vermouths that are made with white wine, Baldoria Dry uses a base of Cortese grapes that have been partially dried using the "passito" method. This concentrates the flavors and gives the vermouth a subtle, honeyed undertone that balances beautifully with its dry character.
