How we calculate the Vermutpedia Score →

Overall impression

Vermutpedia is re-evaluating the Italian catalogue; this entry's Vermutpedia Score remains pending until the new tasting round is complete. Anselmo Bianco is part of the Vermouth di Torino range of Anselmo Torino SRL, a house with more than 170 years of liqueur-making history since 1854 according to anselmotorino.com. It revives the tradition of the early-twentieth-century white vermouth — when Carlo Anselmo created specialities such as the Dante, an evolution of the dry white vermouth — with artisan production and natural ingredients in Castelnuovo Don Bosco.

Nose and palate

A profile where sweetness predominates over bitterness, consistent with the historic Torino white style. Artisan production with selected aromatic herbs following the house philosophy: balance, complexity and citrus notes that characterise Anselmo vermouth according to anselmotorino.com.

How to serve it

Old fashioned on ice with a lemon peel, or in classic white vermouth cocktails — the usual serving for Torinese white. Ideal as a refreshing aperitivo when seeking a sweet, rounded white rather than the sweetness-bitterness balance of the rosso.

Production context

17% vol., 75 cl. Production at Viale Europa 3, Castelnuovo Don Bosco (AT). Same artisan philosophy as the rosso: reviving Carlo Anselmo's recipes — who in 1884 perfected the herb blend in Canelli moscato wine — and valorising the Piedmontese liqueur tradition according to anselmotorino.com.
