Vergano Dry Vermouth

Item # 49299 750 mL

One of the best and most unexpected collaborations we've seen in years. To make this special edition of their dry vermouth, the Vergano family teamed up with iconic natural wine makers Clos du Tue-Boeuf, using the Loire producers rare Romorantin white wine as the base! The herbal aromas follow on the palate with buoyant notes of lemon and summer melon wrapped up in a piercing palate cleansing acidity. Very special.

Several other Piedmontese grapes make striking and delicious wines: Pelaverga produces light-colored reds with distinctive notes of strawberry, cherry, and pink peppercorn.
