Overall impression

Vermut de Barrica Monasterio de Corias is the aged reference of the Asturian bodega (Cangas del Narcea, D.O.P. Cangas): made with Albarín Negro grapes from its own vineyards, matured in oak barrels. Intense ruby colour with garnet flashes; a complex, balanced profile between indigenous grape, botanicals and wood.

Nose and palate

Nose of wood, indigenous fruit and aromatic herbs. Palate with body and personality; balance between sweetness, bitterness and fruity nuances typical of heroic Cangas vermouth.

How to serve it

Cool, not ice-cold, with a piece of orange peel. Pairs with olives, savoury snacks and dried fruit.

Production context

Made at Monasterio de Corias s/n, Cangas del Narcea. 15% vol., 75 cl. Vermouth range: Barrica, Blanco (Albarín Blanco) and Manzana.
