Bordiga Vermouth Di Torino Rosso is a traditional Piedmontese vermouth produced by the Bordiga Distillery in Cuneo, located in the Piedmont region of Italy. Since 1888, the distillery has focused on using Alpine botanicals and historic recipes to define the Torino style. This expression is a classic representative of the Rosso category, balancing bitterness with a complex herbal sweetness.
The production utilizes a base of high-quality Italian wines, including Nebbiolo from local vineyards. The fortification process incorporates a blend of more than 30 botanicals, many of which are hand-picked by mountain foragers in the nearby Occitan Alps. These ingredients, including wormwood, gentian, and cinchona, are macerated individually to ensure the precise extraction of essential oils before being blended and rested in oak.
The profile is defined by a deep and spicy nose of dark cherry, cloves, and balsamic herbs. On the palate, it displays a rich and velvety texture with integrated notes of vanilla, bitter orange, and rhubarb. The structure is robust and well-rounded, leading into a long finish characterized by a lingering herbal bitterness and a hint of warm wood spice.
Bordiga is well regarded for its commitment to manual production methods and the use of copper alembic stills. It is part of a lineage of vermouths that strictly adhere to the Vermouth di Torino geographical indication, ensuring the use of local wormwood and specific alcohol volumes. The release is an essential choice for traditional Negronis and Manhattan cocktails or for neat consumption as an aperitif.
Available in our Copenhagen store or for delivery across the EU.
