A top-drawer white wine-based aperitif from Bordeaux, made with local wines blended with fruit brandies and matured in oak for between six to twelve months.
A splendid red aperitif hailing from the Bordeaux region of France, Lillet Rouge is less famous than its Blanc sister (so beloved of James Bond) and will add welcome pep to your Manhattans and Negronis.
The 2006 vintage of Lillet's top of the range red vermouth, only produced in years where they find a base wine good enough. A marriage of Bordeaux, fruit and herbs aged in oak and ready to be enjoyed young or left to age and gain further complexity.
