This intense white vermouth hails from the Piedmont region of northern Italy, and is made from Trebbiano and Cortese wine grapes. It is medium in weight with balanced sweetness and hints of allspice, clove, flowers, and lemon citrus, with balanced acidity and lingering gentian and cardamom on the finish. The base wine macerated with roughly 30 botanicals that are all hand-picked in the Occitan Alps.
The Bordiga distillery was founded in 1888 by Pietro Bordiga, a passionate bartender and herbalist, who was living in the northern Italian city of Torino (Turin) at the foot of the Alps. Torino was, and still is home to a thriving cafe and theater culture and is also the birthplace of Vermouth di Torino.
