Appearance
Brilliant, crystal clear.
Aromatics
The aromatics are multifarious offering scents of ripe red fruits with dried figs and dates, anise, vanilla, and chocolate.
Flavor
The palate is in full agreement with the nose delivering a lush, fruit center-core with generous herb and spice notes in support with hints of bitter bark and allspice.
Intensity & Texture
Wonderfully intense with waves of sweet and tart fruits supported by a melange of spices.
Cool Factor
I have always loved Vermouth and when it's this tasty and complex it's as cool as it gets.
Value Grade
It doesn't get any better than this so the fine spirit is worth every penny.
Analysis
La Quintinye Vermouth Royal is a specialty Vermouth brand crafting their unique spirits with wines from the Southwest of France, Pineau des Charentes, and selected botanicals. Their rouge is incredibly rich and complex with layers of flavors. Most dedicated spirits fans have never tasting anything like this great rouge.
How to Enjoy
This great Vermouth is fine flying solo with just a glass and ice but it's ready to make a brilliant manhattan or negroni.
