An aromatized wine first created in the late 18th century in the Court of Savoy, vermouth instantly became a must-have for the European aristocracy. Its name derives from the German word Wermut the term used to indicate wormwood, the botanical that has characterized this product since the beginning.
Rosso Antico is a masterful blend of select white wines and 33 botanicals that undergo the classic extraction methods of blending and boiling. Three species of Wormwood Absinthium Pontica and Vulgaris endow the liquid with its characteristic personality and a balanced level of pleasant bitterness.
