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.
“Vin amer” = bitter wine. Substitute this for an after dinner bitter. Pink grapefruit, plum, sweet spice, and fresh herbs, with a fruity and herb-like entry, and a delicately bitter finish. 150 g/l RS. Vin Amer is certainly a versatile cocktail ingredient where a bitter wine or liqueur is called for, but Maidenii Nocturne Vin Amer really comes into its own when simply enjoyed chilled in a wine glass.
