Description
In 1821, Maison Dolin made history by creating the world's first "Blanc" vermouth, a brilliant departure from the darker, heavier styles of the era. This Alpine treasure is a study in crystalline purity, capturing the essence of a high altitude meadow with a secret bouquet of over 30 hand picked botanicals. While it carries a lovely sweetness, it remains remarkably light and elegant, acting as a perfect bridge between the herbal complexity of a dry vermouth and the richness of a red. It is an essential bottle for any home bar, offering a sophisticated, "meadow fresh" experience that is just as delightful sipped over ice as it is in a world class cocktail.
