Description
Lillet Rouge Vermouth/Wine Aperitif, Bordeaux, France
A blend of 85-percent Bordeaux regional wines (mainly using Merlot) and 15-percent handcrafted fruit liqueurs. Herbs and berries mix with baking spices on the nose. On the palate it is gently sweet with deep herbal notes, orange zest and crushed flower petals. The dark green herbs carry through to a refreshing and dry finish.
Critic;s Tasting Note:
"Dark berry fruits and a delicate tannin structure in the fragrance. On the palate, there is a clear liqueur-like sweetness that further enhances the berry fruit. Pleasant finish, sweet finish."
92/100 points, FALSTAFF (Austria), 2015
Also awarded GOLD at the San Francisco International Wine Competition, 2022
Cocktail Mix: The aperitif can be drunk chilled on its own, but can also be used in cocktails such as the Vesper and the Old Etonian.
