Elaboration (Vinification)

We have made our Vermouth Quitapenas with one of our best wines Pedro Ximénez, getting a high quality vermouth, different, elegant, with personality, so that not only drink but also live the moments quitapenas.

With double oxidative aging in American oak barrels for a total of 12 months.

The first 6 months of aging are like sweet wine Pedro Ximénez. Meanwhile, and during 2 months, we proceed to macerate in a hydroalcoholic solution, a careful selection of bitter vegetable substances of the genus artemisia, whose recipe has passed from generation to generation, among which we highlight:

• Plants: Melissa, sage, hyssop.
• Flowers: Chamomile, elderflower, cloves, hops.
• Fruits: Star anise, fennel, coriander, orange peel, carob beans.
• Roots: Cinnamon, turmeric.

Once we extract the herbal extract, we assemble it with the Pedro Ximénez base wine, and it goes through its refining phase for integration, already as vermouth, another 6 months in American oak barrels.
