La Quintinye - Vermouth Royal Rouge
La Quintinye Vermouth Royal Rouge is named after Jean-Baptiste de La Quintinye, Charentais by birth, a visionary botanist and an exceptional gardener. It is a tribute to the excellence and memory of the man to whom we owe the vegetable and botanical gardens of the Château de Versailles.
A French vermouth made from a unique blend of red wines from south-western France and red Pineau des Charentes, La Quintinye is flavoured by a subtle combination of 28 plants and spices. The nose is balanced and complex, revealing aromas of liquorice, plum and vanilla, with hints of chocolate. The palate is rich and powerful, with notes of caramel, bitter vanilla and spices that linger on the palate.
Enjoy it neat as an aperitif or in a cocktail. Once opened, it can be kept for up to 6 months in the fridge.
Chosen for their aromatic properties, 12 plants and spices make up the palette common to all La Quintinye Vermouths:
- Artemisia - The essential plant for a Vermouth, it belongs to the Wormwood family.
- Angelica - Initially sweet, evolving towards bittersweet notes.
- Cinnamon - The bark with its characteristic warm and powerful taste.
- Quassia Amara - Wood and bark with an intense bitterness.
- Ginger - Flavours as sweet as they are powerful.
- Cardamom - An aromatic plant with lemony flavours.
- Fleur de Vigne - The ephemeral flower with its subtle and delicate aromas is a signature.
- Licorice - The sweet taste of the plant also known as ‘Sweet Root’.
- Iris Root - Adds its violet-like aromas while enhancing those of other plants.
- Citrus Aurantium - Better known as Bitter Orange, used for its citrus bouquet with fresh, fruity notes.
- Nutmeg - A sweet, rounded profile with a very slight bitterness.
- Quinquina - Known for its acidic, bitter flavour.
