Overall impression

Castelrío Vermut Blanco is the white vermouth of Alcampo's economy Castelrío line, officially listed as «CASTELRÍO Vermut blanco elaborado en España botella de 1 l.» on compraonline.alcampo.es. It belongs to the Alcampo Económico segment within alcoholic beverages, with legal designation Vermut Blanco and production in Spain attributed to Bodegas y Vinos Angel Luis Pablo Uriol S.L. — Camino Calatayud, s/n, Terrer (Zaragoza). 15% vol., 1 L format, indicative price around €2.84/litre on the online sheet. Semisweet profile coherent with 10.5 g sugars per 100 g declared (126 kcal/100 g). For Vermutpedia, it represents Aragonese private-label white in the supermarket: accessible, made in Terrer by Uriol — the same winery as Casa Valdepablo and other local vermouth references — and intended for everyday consumption without gourmet pretensions. Entry reference within the Castelrío range, which also includes the red of the same brand.

Nose and palate

The Alcampo sheet does not detail specific organoleptic notes; the composition — white wine, water, alcohol, flavourings, citric acid, potassium polyaspartate and potassium metabisulphite — points towards a simple aromatised white profile. The 10.5 g sugars per 100 g place sweetness in a medium-low range compared with more indulgent vermouths. On the nose, soft citrus aromas and a light floral touch predominate, without the botanical complexity of premium whites. On the palate, easy drinking, discreet bitterness, light texture and a short finish. The 15% vol. provides enough structure for a cold aperitivo. Compared with Castelrío Rojo from the same brand — aromatising preparation with herbs and E150a caramel — the white is fresher and less dense. Compared with Italian litre whites in other chains, Castelrío bets on Spanish origin and contained price. For palates seeking an economical litre white made in Aragón, it fulfils the contract documented on compraonline.alcampo.es.

How to serve it

Serve very cold with ice and lemon — the most coherent use for a semisweet domestic aperitivo white. Also with tonic or soda for a light spritz, or as an ingredient in simple cocktails where the 1 L format proves practical. It does not demand a balloon glass or elaborate garnish: this is everyday terrace vermouth. Pairs with light appetisers, olives and pickles. Once opened, keep sealed in a cool place, protected from light. Alcampo warns that the product is prohibited to minors and may require age verification on delivery — standard notice on the sheet. For Vermutpedia, Castelrío Blanco is supermarket white for a cold aperitivo with ice and lemon, or economical mixing per the Alcampo sheet.
