La Palera Vermouth FraGiò Bianco

La Palera

Borgomasino , Italia

Overall impression

Vermutpedia is re-evaluating the Italian catalogue; the Vermutpedia Score for this entry remains pending until the new tasting round is complete. FraGiò Vermouth di Torino Bianco belongs to La Palera's vermouth range, a family winery in Borgomasino (Canavese, Piedmont) that farms two hectares with respect for the land and centres production on Erbaluce, the emblematic grape of the area.

Nose and palate

The white half of the FraGiò pair, complementing the Rosso. The profile fits the Vermouth di Torino bianco typology the house markets in its artisan vermouth catalogue—Piedmontese, Erbaluce-rooted and intended as the lighter counterpoint to the red FraGiò within a two-reference range.

How to serve it

Cold aperitif, neat over ice or lengthened; it suits spritz service or light combinations typical of Piedmontese white vermouth—refreshing, approachable and regional in character.

Production context

Sixteen percent alcohol, 75 cl. One of two vermouth references from La Palera alongside FraGiò Rosso; the estate defines itself as an azienda agricola a conduzione familiare in Borgomasino.
