Australia’s most popular vermouth! Maidenii (pronounced Maiden-eye) was created in 2011 by French-born winemaker Gilles Lapalus and Australian bartender Shaun Byrne. Gilles has been living and making wine in Central Victoria for decades. In their creation, Shaun and Gilles wanted to showcase Australia's unique native botanicals. Their Vermouth uses young wine and native flora to make a vibrant product distinct from others.
Produced from Heathcote Viognier grapes as well as fragrant botanicals and citrus, rounded off with the bitter edge of cinchona bark. Fresh and breezy entry followed by racy flavors of semi- ripe apricot, pink grapefruit, vibrant dried herb, quinine, and a mint finish that's remarkably long. This “kina” feels equally at home in cocktails such as a Corpse Reviver #2 (gin, lillet, orange liqueur) as it does with a splash of soda and fresh citrus in a highball.
