Adelaide Hills Distillery

78 Degrees Rosso Vermouth

Our home state of South Australia is known for red wine & our preference is for the famed old vine Grenache of McLaren Vale. Casting characteristics of raspberry & blueberry with nuances of spice, chocolate & tobacco, this is the perfect foundation to craft our Rosso Vermouth. To this rich base we add a generous handful of our imported 1960s blend of 36 Torino roots, herbs & spices, which add vanilla, spice & deeply complex herbal characters. Individually vapour infused native botanicals including anise myrtle & quandong impart an Australian touch, adding rich stone fruit characters & enhancing the leafy herbal complexity. Sunrise lime & finger lime cut through the unctuous nature of the Grenache to for a bright citrus lift to balance the finish.
