Dolin Vermouth de Chambery Rouge Red Vermouth

FROM CHAMBÉRY IN THE FRENCH ALPS: Dolin is a family-owned distillery producing authentic mountain products made with passion for more than two centuries since 1821. Red, white or dry, Dolin vermouths are a great asset to bartenders and discerning consumers who are looking for quality flavors for their aperitifs and cocktails. Recognized every year in the top 5 by the Drinks International brand report as best selling brand and top trending vermouths. DOLIN ROUGE (Sweet) brings life to botanicals and spices in a white wine with notes of caramel. A light and fresh profile,a clean finish to complement and not overwhelm a drink’s other components. More than thirty herbs and spices flavour Dolin Rouge; its profile is firm and balanced, without an excessively sweet aftertaste. An essential ingredient of cult cocktails such the Negroni or Manhattan, it melds in an indispensable manner with the other ingredients to deliver a subtle blend of flavours. AS WITH ANY DOLIN VERMOUTH, the Rouge is excellent with a citrus twist over ice. Oranges complement its woodsy herbal notes well, but feel free to experiment with other citrus fruits. Its bright acidity pairs happily with nutty cheeses. On a warm day, fill a glass with Dolin Rouge, ginger ale or club soda, and a wheel of citrus fruit. TASTING NOTES: Colour: Brilliant, gold-touched amber. NOSE: Very sweet nose, notes of stewed fruit, prune and nuts with a slight herbaceous note, tempered by spicy aromas of cinnamon and Szechuan pepper. TASTE: Complex impressions with aromas of almond and citrus. Pear and cinnamon with notes of gingerbread, tobacco, oregano and hyssop. At the finish, very rich bouquet moderated by a subtle base of bitterness. SERVING SUGGESTION: Dolin Rouge also complements most American straight whiskeys in a Manhattan, from lighter “wheaters” to boldly spicy Single Barrel.
