Overall impression

Vermut Blanco Silvano García completes the vermouth pair from Bodegas Silvano García (Jumilla, Murcia), founded in 1925 and now in its third family generation. Modern vermouth made artisanally from high-quality wine macerated with a selection of aromatic plants, flowers and fruits reflected in its original labelling. Gold Taste Wine Up! 2020 (90+); Gold Gilbert & Gaillard, June 2018; 89 points in low-cost wine guide (May 2018). For Vermutpedia, it represents Murcian white vermouth with barrel influence: aromatic, velvety and competition-validated, sibling to the house's Monastrell-based red. At 15% vol. and 75 cl, with indicative shop price €9.50, it offers accessible artisan quality from an urban Jumilla winery with decades of Mediterranean winemaking heritage.

Nose and palate

Pale yellow colour. Aromatic and velvety, with wood, herb and spice notes evoking ripe fruit. On the palate it is luscious; acidity in harmony with typical vermouth bitter notes. The entry is very balanced and the glyceric touch brings a very pleasant velvety character. Barrel contact adds spice and structure without dominating botanical freshness. Semisweet sweetness integrates with bitter wormwood echo; texture is round, passage silky. Compared with Silvano García Rojo — Monastrell, more dried fruit and cocoa — the white privileges floral and ripe-fruit aromatics with lighter colour and more direct aperitif register. For anyone seeking award-winning Murcian white vermouth, the blanco offers documented competition results and winery tasting coherence at silvanogarcia.com.

How to serve it

Before meals, alone or with soda, very cold, accompanied by savoury snacks. Ideal temperature between 6 and 12 °C per winery recommendation. Works as versatile terrace aperitif or light spritz base. In wide glass with moderate ice, wood and herb notes open while glyceric roundness keeps the palate engaged. Also contemplative in wine glass without ice for slow appreciation of barrel-spice integration. For Vermutpedia, Silvano García Blanco is drunk cold and direct — Mediterranean aperitif vermouth with competition pedigree and honest Murcian artisan production.

Production context

Made in Jumilla. 15% vol., 75 cl. Sibling to Vermut Rojo Silvano García, made with high-quality Monastrell. Bodegas Silvano García prepares two vermouths characterised by variety and botanics, represented on original labels. Indicative official shop price: €9.50. Third-generation family winery in urban Jumilla heart. For Vermutpedia, Blanco synthesises Murcian artisan white vermouth: high-quality white wine base, barrel contact, semisweet, award-winning.
