Description

The Torino IGT Vermouth Rosso - Calissano stands out as a rare gem among high-end vermouths.

Produced with a meticulous selection of herbs, roots, and spices, expertly blended with a high-quality red wine, the Vermouth Rosso Calissano is distinguished by its intense color and the depth of its aromas. On the nose, it opens with notes of ripe orange, hints of cocoa and vanilla, and a touch of oriental spices, which together create an inviting promise of complexity and fullness.

On the palate, the olfactory promise is fulfilled in a perfect balance of sweetness and bitterness, a distinctive feature of the finest vermouths. Its structure is enveloping, with a richness of flavors that develop into a long and pleasantly bitter finish, leaving a lasting sensation of warmth and spice.

This red vermouth is perfect both for tasting on its own, perhaps served slightly chilled to enhance its qualities, and as a base ingredient for innovative cocktails or classic reinterpretations, where it can best express its unique and enveloping personality.

Winery history

The winery originated as a family-run business tied to the Calissano family: Luigi Calissano began commercial operations at the end of the nineteenth century, developing over the ensuing decades an enterprise with branches and a strong presence in sparkling and aromatized wines. Over the course of the twentieth century production focused on wines from the Langhe, classic-method sparkling wines and vermouth; following corporate changes the name/brand is now held and managed by groups that have promoted its relaunch.

Production philosophy

Promoting the Langhe and Alta Langa region by combining local tradition with the production of sparkling wines made using the Traditional Method. Particular attention is paid to selecting base wines also suitable for vermouth production, with reference to the Piedmontese aromatic herbs used for flavored vermouths.
