Tasting Notes

Nose: Inviting aromas of dried orange peel, vanilla bean, cinnamon, and clove, layered over a base of rich red fruit and subtle caramel. Hints of oak and spice from the bourbon barrels bring warmth and sophistication.

Palate: Lush, bittersweet, and complex. Notes of candied citrus and ripe cherries unfold alongside baking spices, vanilla, and soft herbal undertones. The bourbon barrel aging imparts a gentle smokiness and smooth richness, elevating the vermouth without overpowering its Italian soul.

Finish: Lingering and warming, with sweet spice, oak tannins, and a soft herbal-bitter balance that leaves you ready for another sip—or another cocktail.

Why Liquor Geeks recommends it

This is a bittersweet red Vermouth di Torino made just outside Turin at Torino Distillati, with one twist that sets it apart on the shelf: it is aged in Kentucky bourbon barrels. The wine base is infused with natural fruits and botanicals, including orange peel, vanilla, and clove, and the barrels add oak, spice, and a gentle smokiness without burying the herbal, bittersweet character that makes Italian rosso so useful. Expect dried orange peel and cinnamon on the nose, candied citrus and ripe cherry on the palate, and a warming finish of sweet spice and soft oak tannin. It suits the home bartender who wants a richer Negroni or a Manhattan where the vermouth actually speaks up, and it is just as welcome chilled or over ice as an aperitif or digestif. We carry it because it bridges two worlds our customers already love, Italian aperitivo culture and American whiskey, and it gives bourbon drinkers an easy, delicious way into vermouth.

Pairs well with

Aperitivo hour with friends — Its bittersweet, herbal profile and candied citrus make it a natural pre-dinner sip, whether chilled, over ice, or lengthened into a spritz.
Aged cheese and cured meats — The ripe cherry, baking spice, and soft oak tannins stand up to salty, savory bites and refresh the palate between them.
Dark chocolate after dinner — Vanilla, cinnamon, and clove echo the cocoa while the herbal-bitter finish keeps the pairing from turning cloying.
