About this vermouth
Wine Style:
Yzaguirre Rojo is a classic Spanish-style vermouth, crafted from a wine base infused with over 80 herbs and spices. It features a dark amber color and a distinctly traditional character.
Tasting Notes:
It presents an intense aroma with herby and spicy notes. Subtle balsamic notes contribute to its pleasant and unique structure. It has a good aromatic intensity in the mouth which balances out the acidity very well. Long, intense and slightly bitter aftertaste.
Gastronomy:
Excellent as an everyday aperitif: with 2 anchovy-stuffed olives, 2 or 3 ice cubes and a slice of orange. Pairs well with appetizers like cured meats, cheeses, and tapas.
Winemaking process:
Yzaguirre steeps around 80 herbs and spices in copper cauldrons, macerates them for about a month, then blends the extract with white wine, wine spirit and sugar. The house in El Morell, near Tarragona, dates to 1884 and is considered the oldest vermouth brand still on the Spanish market, its recipe kept secret.
