Celda by Mazmorra

Zaragoza , España

Overall impression

Vermut Celda Especiado is the spiced reference from Celda by Mazmorra (Zaragoza), the author vermouth brand of Taberna La Mazmorra. Per the producer, it is an artisan red vermouth on a Macabeo and Chardonnay base from Bodegas Valdovinos, macerated with clove, rosemary and orange peel. The website describes it as an «insolent prelude»: intense, bold and deep, spicy and citrus. Each bottle numbered, torn label hand-applied and glass stopper. 17.2% vol., 75 cl. Forms the classic trio with Herbáceo and Frutal, extended by the limited Era de los Nogales edition.
