La Quintinye Royal Extra Dry Vermouth

Pouring a pale golden raisin in the glass with an indulgent syrupy nose. Exuding white peach, ripe honeydew melon, ripe mango, clover honey, pineapple, white tea, fresh rain water, and wet slate on the nose. A refreshing tartness washes over the palate followed by distinctive minerality, ending is a subtle savory finish that is clean and dry. Extraordinary, Ultimate Recommendation. Score – 96.
