Overall impression

Vermouth Alfonsina Floreale is the Malbec reference from Alfonsina, the family project of Lara, Franco and Bruno Persano in Paraje Altamira (Uco Valley, Mendoza), with estate vineyards linked to Finca Las Glicinas. Per the official shop it is a dry vermouth on Malbec wine; main botanicals: wormwood, mint, plum, raisin and coriander. Red-fruit profile (per house combo copy); Argentine press has associated it with a sweeter, fruitier register versus herbaceous Speziato. Low intervention: fresh natural herbs with bottle sediment. 16% vol., 75 cl. On the market since 2021; named for Alfonsina Storni. For Vermutpedia, it documents Persanos' Altamira Malbec vermouth.

Nose and palate

Pending evaluation.

How to serve it

On ice, as Lara Persano recommends at natural-wine fairs; also cold neat or with soda in Argentine aperitivo style. Fits picada, terrace and light cocktails where fruity Malbec adds body without Speziato's peppery edge. Pairs with empanadas, soft cheeses and Mediterranean-criollo tapas.

Production context

Made in Altamira / La Consulta (Mendoza) by Alfonsina Vermouth (Persano siblings): estate Uco Valley wine base; herbs, spices, flowers and citrus macerate in cereal spirit and are integrated in barrel. Not heavily filtered: fresh-herb sediment in bottle. Sibling to Speziato, Rosé and Tropicale. Contact: hola@alfonsinavermouth.com.ar; Instagram @alfonsina.vermut; alfonsinavermouth.com.ar. For Vermutpedia, Floreale synthesises Alfonsina's low-intervention Malbec vermouth: 16% vol., 75 cl and mint-plum botany verifiable in the official shop.
