Poderi Colla's Bonmè Vermouth is a distinctive aromatized wine from Piedmont, Italy, crafted from 100% Muscat grape must. The term "Bonmè" refers to wormwood (Artemisia absinthium) in the Piedmontese dialect, a key botanical in traditional vermouth recipes. Poderi Colla is a family-owned winery with a rich history in Piedmontese winemaking. Their commitment to traditional methods and quality is evident in their diverse range of wines, including this unique vermouth.
Production Process:
-
Grape Must: Freshly harvested Muscat grapes are immediately pressed. To prevent fermentation, pure Buongusto alcohol is added, preserving the natural sweetness and aromatic intensity of the grape must.
-
Botanical Infusion: Approximately twelve herbs and botanicals—including peels, seeds, roots, and flowers—are individually infused in alcohol for one to two weeks. These extracts are meticulously blended to achieve a harmonious balance of flavors.
-
Aging: The combined mixture is allowed to rest for several months, enabling the flavors to integrate seamlessly before bottling.
Tasting Notes:
-
Aroma: Highly aromatic, featuring floral, citrus, and herbal nuances.
-
Palate: Offers vibrant citrus flavors—lemon, pineapple, orange—complemented by a complex herbal profile.
Serving Suggestions:
-
Aperitif: Serve chilled at approximately 7-8°C (45-48°F) to enhance its refreshing qualities.
-
Digestif: At slightly warmer temperatures, it pairs excellently with dark chocolate desserts.
-
Cheese Pairing: Surprisingly delightful when enjoyed with strong, spicy cheeses like natural Gorgonzola or those seasoned with herbs and spices.
