Based on a classic di Torino recipe from the late 19th century, Alessio Vermouth di Torino Rosso is designed to be enjoyed as what was commonly called a "Vino di Lusso" (luxury wine), a wine thoroughly consumed on its own. Created with a fine Piedmont wine as the base, this authentic Vermouth di Torino contains both Grande and Petite Wormwood, along with over 25 other pharmaceutical-grade herbs, roots and spices.
Dense and dark, with intensely bitter amaro notes on the nose - licorice root, stewed prunes, and cloves - and not much in the way of sweetness. The body offers a more bittersweet character, tempering the heavy bitter components with some raisin and baking spice notes. A fairly dark chocolate character comes along on the finish to add some mystique. Works exceptionally well as a cocktail ingredient and drinks beautifully on its own.
