Production philosophy
To reassess and reinterpret southern liqueur-making tradition in a contemporary, premium key, focusing on the selection of local raw materials and historical recipes that recall the cultural heritage of the Bourbon court.
Territory

Production method
For the vermouth the official description indicates the infusion of herbs and spices in neutral alcohol to extract their aromas, then blending with a base wine (for the Vermouth Rosso the use of Nero d'Avola/Marsala grapes is cited) together with sugar and secret ingredients.
