Bianco vermouth is one of the most popular aperitivi in Italy, traditionally enjoyed on the rocks with a twist. This recipe originates with the family of Paola Rogai, Antica Torino’s beloved office manager. Paola’s great-uncle Carlin lived in the Monferrato area and worked for FIAT in Turin while making wine and vermouth from his family’s vineyards. Updating the recipe for modern use, Antica Torino presents a vermouth bianco with earnest origins and unique character, easily distinguished from its competitors while retaining mixing versatility.
Based on a blanc vermouth recipe from the 1940s–1950s
Blend of Italian grapes such as trebbiano, chardonnay, and cortese, fortified with neutral spirit distilled from wheat and infused with herbs and spices
Featured botanicals include wormwood, marjoram, sage, thistle, thyme, coriander, and licorice (the licorice is macerated separately for maximum extraction and then blended to best represent the flavor of the original recipe)
Marshmallow and white flowers on the nose; round and pleasant bitterness on the mid-palate with a notable finish of licorice root and sweet tarragon
