Aromatised wine with natural infusion of aromatic plants in the Cabra cellars, monovarietal 100% Pedro Ximénez on natural fortified wine. Bright mahogany colour with amber reflections; balsamic and citrus notes, herbs, vanilla from wood ageing; enveloping sweet palate, balanced, herbal and almondy with light bitterness per distribution sheets. 15% vol., 75 cl. For Vermutpedia, Los Patios embodies Subbética artisan vermouth: Cabra PX, traditional methods and Córdoba aperitivo profile.

How to serve it

Serve very cold with ice and citrus slice — classic aperitivo format in Cabra and Montilla-Moriles. Pairs with olives, cheeses, charcuterie and preserves; the winery orientates it to slow enjoyment of terrace vermouth with character and tradition. Also in a simple spritz with soda. Temperature between 8 and 10 °C in a wide glass; wood ageing adds vanilla and roundness that pair with Sierra Subbética tapas.
