Vermouth Antakira Artesano

Bodegas Antakira

Málaga , España

Overall impression

Vermouth Antakira Artesano is the artisan red from Bodegas Antakira in Mollina (Málaga): vermouth made by macerating Pedro Ximénez wine with a selection of botanicals that lend their distinctive aroma, according to bodegasantakira.com. Grapes come from old vines of roughly seventy years, planted at 600 m on slate soils with yields of just 1,700 kg/ha; their minerality and acidity balance the sweetness of the must. Second reference in the vermouth range alongside the Original.
