How we calculate the Vermutpedia Score →

Overall impression

Vermutpedia is re-evaluating the Italian catalogue; the Vermutpedia Score for this entry remains pending until the new tasting round is complete. Strucchi Vermouth di Torino Bianco belongs to the range inspired by Arnaldo Strucchi (1853–1913), author of «Il Vermouth di Torino» (1907), according to strucchi.land. Paolo Dalla Mora reinterpreted the historic recipe with contemporary sensibility. Made by fortification and aromatisation of Italian white wine; 16% vol., 75 cl. Riccardo Guasco label inspired by Greta Garbo. Complement to Rosso and Dry in the artisan Piedmontese Vermouth di Torino line. For Vermutpedia, it is floral, semisweet Torinese white without barrel ageing — elderflower and artemisia in a package that honours nineteenth-century vermouth scholarship with modern graphic identity.

Nose and palate

Strucchi.land describes straw-yellow colour. Elegant floral aroma with elderflower and an artemisia herbal touch. Round, refreshing palate with marjoram, thyme and rosemary; citrus notes from coriander seeds followed by a delicately bitter finish. The Strucchi process includes herb maceration in hydroalcoholic solution, fortification of Italian white wine, two-day «mariage» phase and filtration, per strucchi.land/en/about/. Semisweet profile for clear aperitivos and White Negroni. Compared with the Dry sibling, the Bianco trades austerity for floral roundness; compared with industrial white vermouths, it shows real herb marriage and Torinese artisan method. For Vermutpedia, a coherent bianco profile verifiable at strucchi.land.

How to serve it

Strucchi recommends the Bianco with tonic — vermouth florals with tonic's soft bitterness — or in White Negroni, white Martini and soda mixes. Serve cold in a glass or wide tumbler. The elderflower-artemisia profile suits spritz and light aperitivo. Also as «vermuttino» ottocentesco: alone, one hour before dinner, with Piedmontese snacks. Cold temperature enhances citrus and Mediterranean herbs. For Vermutpedia, Strucchi Bianco is drunk cold — tonic, White Negroni, solo aperitivo — as artisan Torinese white vermouth.

Production context

Strucchi makes vermouth and bitter «alla maniera di Strucchi» with maceration method, two-day mariage and final tasting before bottling. Bianco: fortified Italian white wine, 16% vol., 75 cl. Range includes Rosso (16%), Dry (18%) and Bitter (27%). Distributed by Gaja Distribuzione. Paolo Dalla Mora project. For Vermutpedia, the Bianco synthesises Strucchi artisan Torinese white vermouth: floral, semisweet, no ageing. A piece verifiable at strucchi.land.
