Vermouth Lacuesta Rojo Reviews

4.9 Rating 13 Reviews
Read Basco Fine Foods Reviews

THE WINERY Martinez Lacuesta produces Vermut Lacuesta using only its own grapes harvested from several of its Rioja vineyards. The botanicals herbs and aromatic plants cold-macerated in white wine are aged in American oak barrels for 3 years before being blended with a white wine base. The vermouth is then aged for another 3 months in French oak. Careful selection of ingredients has earned Vermut Lacuesta a place among the finest aperitifs in Spain since 1937. TASTING NOTES On the nose it is highly aromatic, evoking the macerated herbs used: vanilla, chamomile, gentian and others. In the mouth it is a perfect balance between bitterness, sweetness and acidity with a long finish. FOOD PAIRING Perfect for mixing classic cocktails but also excellent used as the main ingredient within a Marianito cocktail, where 50ml of Lacuesta Vermut Rojo is mixed with a dash of gin, campari and angostura bitters. 14.9% ABV / 750ml / Contains Sulphites

One of the best Vermut rojos I’ve tried in the Basque Country.

This is the best vermouth on the market. Sweet but with a bitter kick the floral notes are best enhanced with a tiny dash of tonic and a twist. It is now my go to aperitif!

I like this with ice, summer fruit, and a splash of soda. It goes particularly well with the Manchego and the Goodall olives !

This vermut was a little dryer than the usual brand we buy (Lacuesta) but it was very tasty as we will be purchasing again!
