"The exact recipes are a closely guarded secret, but there are up to 54 different plants used, most notably wormwood, but also hyssop, camomile, genepi, chincona bark and rose petals."
"The color of the Rouge does not come from red base wine, which is unsuitable for elegant Vermouth, and instead comes from the particular plants used, and from sweetening with dark, caramelized sugar."

Dark brown color with a ruby hue.
Massive earthy spice and bitter wormwood on the nose. A complex mix of bitter herb aromas.
On the palate this is mellow-sweet with huge earthy spices. The earthy wormwood stays through the palate and the sugar is balanced very well with the bitter herbs.
A beautiful artisanal product.
