Timbal Rosso Vermouth

Timbal Rosso Vermouth is a Vermouth from the Timbal Vermouth brand hailing from Italy.

What is Timbal Rosso Vermouth?

Timbal Rosso Vermouth stands out with its unique blend of 27 botanicals, including rare ingredients like saffron and myrrh. What's particularly intriguing is that this vermouth is aged in barrels previously used for Moscatel de Setubal, a Portuguese fortified wine, imparting subtle notes of raisins and honey to its complex flavor profile.

Why do we love Timbal Rosso Vermouth?

Cocktail enthusiasts should take note of Timbal Rosso Vermouth for its distinctive blend of Tempranillo and Garnacha wines, infused with a secret recipe of botanicals including wormwood, gentian, and cinnamon. This Spanish vermouth stands out with its rich, complex flavor profile and slightly higher alcohol content (17% ABV) compared to many other vermouths, making it an excellent choice for bold, spirit-forward cocktails like Negronis or Manhattans.

How do you drink Timbal Rosso Vermouth?

Timbal Rosso Vermouth shines when sipped neat or over ice as an aperitif, allowing its complex herbal notes and subtle sweetness to take center stage. This versatile vermouth also excels in stirred cocktails, particularly those with whiskey or gin, and pairs beautifully with rich, savory dishes like cured meats and aged cheeses, making it an ideal companion for cozy autumn evenings or festive holiday gatherings.

Nose: Ripe cherries and plums dominate, backed by hints of cinnamon and clove. Subtle notes of vanilla and orange peel emerge as it opens up. A faint herbal undertone reminiscent of thyme lingers in the background.

Palate: Sweet and rich upfront with flavors of dark berries and caramel. The mid-palate reveals a pleasant bitterness like gentian root, balanced by the sweetness of raisins and figs. Warm baking spices and a touch of licorice add complexity.

Finish: Medium-long with a pleasant interplay of sweet and bitter notes. The fruit flavors fade, leaving behind a dry, slightly woody character reminiscent of oak barrels. A gentle warmth and lingering spiciness invite another sip.

Timbal Rosso Vermouth is crafted using a blend of Italian white wines infused with a secret mixture of over 30 herbs and spices, including wormwood, gentian, and coriander. What sets Timbal apart is its unique aging process, where the vermouth rests for several months in large oak barrels previously used for Amarone wine, imparting rich, complex flavors and a deep ruby color to the final product.
