Vermouth Rosso Del Professore - 75cl

The Vermouth Rosso Del Professore is yet another gem produced by the Antica Distilleria Quaglia, located in Castelnuovo Don Bosco – not far from Turin – which embodies the most artisanal traditions regarding the art of distillation. A bottle with a full and delicate profile, which, thanks to the light tannic profile acquired during the months of aging, unfolds with personality in the mouth, highlighting a bouquet that recalls the ancient pharmaceutical blends of the past. An label that proudly tells the distillery's desire to bring Vermouth back to an important role in the broad panorama of spirits.  

This Vermouth Rosso has a great peculiarity: it is indeed the only Vermouth in the world that is created from both white and red grapes, obviously 100% made from Italian grapes. In this base, after adding pure alcohol, distillation is carried out, followed by the infusion of local spices and botanicals. The sugar added during this phase is cane sugar, of the muscovado type, characterized by a high degree of purity. Once the Vermouth is obtained, it is rested for 6 months in oak barrels, a period during which it enriches itself with the warm and enveloping aromas typical of wood.

The Vermouth Rosso Del Professore presents itself to the eye with a dark red color, crossed by some reflections slightly tending towards orange, especially visible at the rim. The aromas that surround the nose move with a warm and embracing fan, where balsamic and menthol notes can be found, enriched by more fruity and bitter hints. On the palate, it has excellent body, is round, with a slightly pronounced tannic structure and a taste that reveals a hint of rhubarb. A very interesting label, perfect for making the aperitif hour special.
