Noilly Prat
70cl / 18% ABV
Noilly Prat was established by Joseph Noilly, who created his first French Vermouth in 1813.
Unique Selling Point: Selected Picpoul (60%) and Clairette (40%) wines are aged in ancient oak barrels in the open air, exposed to the wind, rain, sun, and sea-spray. The aged wines are blended with sweet mistelle wine from the muscat grape, and a raspberry and lemon-infused distillate. The blend is transferred to large casks and a secret blend of 20 botanicals (including Roman chamomile, yellow gentian, nutmeg, and bitter orange) is added by hand each day in a gentle maceration lasting 3 weeks, after filtration, the wines rest for 6+ weeks before bottling.
