Vermouth is the new big thing in Spain. Many traditional Sherry producers are now crafting their own examples, while companies such as Guerra, who produced this Vermouth from 1879 until the 1960s, are relaunching classic expressions. Much of the excitement surrounding this resurgence is driven by Vermouth's variety and versatility. Try this over ice as a classy aperitif or digestif, or as part of a wide range of cocktails. Guerra suggests enjoying this one chilled with an orange slice. TASTING NOTE: Chocolate, dried fruit on the nose. Pinewood spice on the palate. Melon rich finish.
