Overall impression

Urizarna Red Vermouth is the artisan Riojan vermouth of Vinoenbox (Logroño), marketed mainly in 5, 10 and 15-litre Bag in Box formats with anti-drip tap and vacuum system. According to the official sheet at vinoenbox.com, it is a unique Riojan tradition experience made with the finest ingredients to macerate wine in aromatic herbs and spices; own-brand product, designed for those who love vermouth without complications and with practicality. The website stresses authentic, consistent flavour without oxidation thanks to BIB packaging. Single Urizarna vermouth reference in the catalogue; silver medal at Ver-Art-Es Awards (artisan vermouth competition). For Vermutpedia, it represents the Riojan vermouth most oriented to home and hospitality tap consumption: aromatic, balanced and ready to serve, verifiable in vinoenbox.com official documentation.

Nose and palate

Vinoenbox describes wine macerated in aromatic herbs and spices, extraordinarily aromatic. Visually, brilliant, intense brown. On the nose, balance between alcohol, sugar, bitterness and acidity; wormwood, cinnamon, citrus peel and spices in a harmonious set. On the palate, semisweet profile with integrated herbal bitterness and freshness that avoids heaviness; botanicals selected in artisan production add layers without unbalancing white-wine base. Compared with premium bottle vermouths, Urizarna BIB prioritises cup-to-cup consistency and accessibility. Finish is clean, with moderate spiced persistence. For anyone seeking Riojan vermouth for home or bar tap without oxidation, this balanced-aromatic profile offers a sensory experience coherent with vinoenbox.com tasting note. 15% vol. and semisweet sweetness fit classic aperitivo and simple mixed drinks.

How to serve it

Vinoenbox recommends the vermouth at 10–13 °C neat, with siphon and orange, or in Spritz; also ideal with ice. We suggest keeping the BIB refrigerated after opening and serving between 8 and 12 °C in a glass or wide tumbler, using the anti-drip tap for fresh portions without waste. Works for daily aperitivo, tardeo vermouth or home tap; pairs with tapas, cheese, charcuterie and seafood per the original sheet. 5 L BIB format is ideal to start; 10 and 15 L for regular consumption or small hospitality. With siphon and orange twist it recovers classic Riojan profile; in Spritz with soft sparkling wine it gains lightness. At high temperature balance is lost; avoid leaving too long out of fridge in summer. Compared with premium bottle vermouths, Urizarna wins on practicality and volume. For Vermutpedia, Urizarna Red is drunk cold without oxidation, as Riojan BIB vermouth built for everyday aperitivo and tap.
