Carpano Bianco Vermouth

This wine is from Italy. New to the U.S. market, this dry vermouth smells fresh and fruity. It's well-structured, too: sweet at first, with fleeting pear and tropical fruit flavors, a trace of minerality on the finish and a faint bitterness. An excellent choice for martinis and other cocktails calling for dry vermouth, but unlike most dry vermouths, this one would be pleasing on its own, with ice and a twist of orange peel. Wine
