Overall impression

Vermouth Gran Reserva Conde de Artoiz is the vermouth pinnacle of Bodegas Familia Escudero (Navarra): a family recipe that concentrates the best of late-harvest Garnacha from vines over 80 years old. Against classic Conde de Artoiz (25 botanicals, 15%), Gran Reserva macerates more than 40 Moncayo botanicals for 24 months in French and American oak. Authentic and original, at 17% vol.

Nose and palate

Very complex fruity aroma: honey, cinnamon, scrubland, thyme, rosemary and toasted walnuts on the finish. Perfect balance between wormwood bitterness and overripe fruit sweetness. Elegant, fresh palate, light bitterness and harmonious sweetness in a long aftertaste.

How to serve it

Between 6 and 7 °C with ice and orange slice; high-end Navarra aperitif or digestif.

Production context

100% late-harvest Garnacha; maceration with more than 40 botanicals in barrel for 24 months. 17% vol., 75 cl. Second vermouth reference of the brand alongside classic Conde de Artoiz.
