Controcorrente Vermouth Bianco NV

Veneto, ItalyControcorrente translates as 'against the mainstream' in Italian. This is a boutique vermouth company, using organic Veneto grapes and Mediterranean botanicals. This Bianco is from Durella and Chardonnay grapes, infused with lemon balm, tangerine, and chamomile. Heady and intense, based on the aforementioned three key notes, along with wild pine, mint, white pepper, pine nut, anise, and kumquat. This off-dry vermouth finishes clean and brisk, ready for aperitivo hour, or savoury cheesecake.Tasted: 13 January 2022Tasted by: Treve RingPrices:
