This iconic vermouth was a phenomenal success from the outset across the Atlantic and was later immortalized by James Bond and his Dry Martini, a very simple and absolutely elegant cocktail. Dry vermouth is still acclaimed by bartenders and mixologists from around the world.
TASTING NOTES: Dolin Vermouth de Chambéry is made of fine wines and botanicals found in the Alpine meadows above Chambéry. Together they impart a fresh and elegant nose, with a subtle and complex palate. Dolin Vermouths are notably lighter, drier and less pungent than their larger commercial counterparts. The particular mixture of plants found near Chambéry give a fresh, restrained and elegant nose, with a subtle, complex bittersweet palate. Dolin Dry makes an excellent cocktail, but is also a fantastic aperitif.
FOOD PAIRINGS: Very floral-heavy dry vermouth makes a fine aperitif before a meal and also pairs well with foods you can find on a charcuterie board or antipasti, like olives, nuts, and aged goat cheese. Dry vermouth adds complimentary layers of flavor to dishes with seafood, fish, chicken and vegetables.
