Vermú KDLSO Reserva

Bodega Siguín

Madrid , España

Overall impression

Vermú KDLSO Reserva is, per Bodega Siguín's technical sheet, one of the house's most exclusive products: it starts from the Vermú KDLSO base (red Garnacha, botanicals, citrus and brown sugar) and ages 12 months in new American oak barrels. Time and wood sweeten, concentrate and velvetise the flavours. Garnet tone with brick edges. Vermutpedia score: pending.

Nose and palate

Per the official technical sheet: on the nose, a spread where very ripe fruit intertwines with mountain herbs, spices such as cinnamon and vanilla, and a citrus touch. On the palate, powerful, savoury and intense character; fine bitterness balanced with ripe-fruit sweetness and toasted notes; complex persistence. Vermutpedia editorial tasting pending.

How to serve it

Per the technical sheet: neat, fresh but not iced, in a low glass. Barrel ageing invites a more unhurried tasting than classic KDLSO; no need for ice or dilution if the velvet barrel texture is wanted.

Production context

Made by Bodega Siguín (Cadalso de los Vidrios / Pelayos de la Presa, Madrid) from Vermú KDLSO, with 12 months in new American oak per the technical sheet. Same Gredos-area Garnacha philosophy. Sources: Bodega Siguín technical sheet and bodegasiguin.com.
