Antica Torino Stellare
Availability: | In stock (3) |
- Wine-based aperitivo produced in Northern Italy for Antica Torino
- Botanicals are macerated for varying lengths of time in a combination of Italian neutral wheat spirit and brandy distilled from Northern Italian varieties
- Featured botanicals include gentian, rhubarb root, sweet & bitter orange peel, grapefruit peel, orris root, and heartsease (wild pansy historically used in European herbalism)
- Once filtered, the infused spirit is combined with a combination of Italian Chardonnay and other white wines from Northern Italy
- Sweetened with beet sugar and colored with all-natural cochineal dye
- The final aromatized wine is lightly filtered to remove any remaining particulate and rested for 3 months before bottling
- Aromas of tangy, fruit candies, dried strawberry, and fresh orange pulp introduce a spike of approachable gentian bitterness on the palate while expertly balancing a hint of sweetness with lemon zest on the edges of the tongue. Grapefruit peel and subtle minerality on the finish are amplified when combined with a splash of soda water
- 17% ABV; refrigerate after opening
