St. Petroni: Only on Earth. Red Vermouth Albariño on lees & Wormwood St. Petroni is produced following a careful selection of best vintages of Albariño grapes. To do this, we assure that the final production is obtained from an área spoliled by its unique microclimate, placed in the Valley of Padrón (Rosalian vineyards of PAZO ARRETEN). We cause fermentation on lees to produce distinguishing shades, both in smell and taste, as in the texture of the wine base, which will later be used in the assembly, to maintain the power of the grape in the vermouth.
We select herbs and botanicals very clung to our culture and to our paths, from which is particulary remarkable the abstinthe (the magic plant); bay leaves, mint, rosemay, thyme, sage and lemon balm; skins of sweet and bitter orange, lemon pulp and hibiscus flowers, chamomile....
