A Family Recipe Since 1928
Bodegas Valdepablo has been macerating its vermouths on the same family herbal formula since 1928 — two full months of maceration on Airén wine, longer than most commercial vermouths get. The house style runs less dark and sweet, more acidic than Italian reds: cardamom and gentian over caramel and clove. Browse the Casa Valdepablo range, or see the store's full vermouth selection.
Tasting Notes
Cardamom, vanilla, and clove over caramel with gentian bitterness underneath; brighter acidity than Italian-style red vermouths, with a long, pleasant finish.
How to Enjoy
Over ice with an orange slice, Spanish-style — or in a Manhattan where its higher acidity keeps the drink lively. Works well in a Boulevardier too.
