Vermouth Bianco Casa Mariol
The White Vermouth by Casa Mariol is produced by a Catalan, family-run winery. It is a wine flavored with typical Mediterranean herbs, made from grapes lapped by the strong winds that blow over the area's limestone soils. Intense, fresh and sweet, the vegetal fragrances of thyme, rosemary, as well as sweet hints of citrus and spices are noticeable. Perfect for aperitifs, thanks in part to the elegant designer bottle
Casa Mariol Vermouth Bianco is configured as a vermouth with a strong yet smooth character that encapsulates the know-how of the Vaquer family, engaged in wine production in Terra Alta for almost 100 years. Founded in 1945 in Batea, in the heart of Terra Alta, the family-run estate Casa Mariol is dedicated to the production of still wines, Cava, and vermouth, embracing a philosophy that respects nature, based on organic farming. Furthermore, to ensure exceptional quality standards, the winery utilizes an analysis and control laboratory that allows for the verification of the quality of each product that leaves the bodega.
The Vermouth Bianco from the Casa Mariol production reality is crafted from a white wine obtained from the processing of Macabeu grapes grown by the estate in the younger vineyards. The wine is flavored through a skillful maceration process that follows the recipe of the Vaquer family, using over 150 botanicals gathered from the Terra Alta area. Once the flavoring process is completed and after a short resting period on the fine lees, the vermouth is finally bottled in a characteristic one-liter format.
To the eye, the Vermouth Bianco Casa Mariol displays a straw-yellow color with golden hues. The aromatic profile expresses hints of lemon zest, rosemary, thyme, anise, and fennel, with a touch of vanilla. The tasting is very intense, in surprising balance between the sweet component and the lively freshness, with a pleasant and persistent taste closure. The producer's advice is to enjoy this fresh Vermouth Bianco as an aperitif, alongside various snacks or in combination with tonic water for a burst of freshness.
