PRODUCT DESCRIPTION

Dolin Rouge brings classic French elegance to the world of sweet vermouth—refined, herbaceous, and perfect for enhancing both cocktails and casual sipping.

📜 Heritage & Production

  • Hailing from Chambéry, Savoy, Dolin is the last remaining traditional vermouth producer in the region, with a legacy dating back to 1821 and France’s only AOC for vermouth (1932) 

  • Crafted using over 30–50 alpine botanicals, including coriander, hyssop, rhubarb, gentian, thyme, and citrus peel, all macerated in Savoy white wine—no industrial extracts or artificial flavors


👃 Aromas & Flavor Profile

  • Displays a lustrous copper-salmon hue, followed by a fragrant nose of fruit compote, prunes, walnuts, and fresh herbs, accented with Sichuan pepper, cinnamon, gingerbread, tobacco, oregano, and hyssop 

  • On the palate, it’s light, fresh, and lightly sweet, balanced by spicy-herbal tones, nutty sherry notes, and a clean, pleasantly dry finish .


🍸 Mixability & Pairing

  • Acclaimed as a top-tier sweet vermouth for cocktails, striking a fine line between botanical complexity and softness without overshadowing spirits like bourbon or gin—perfect for Manhattans, Negronis, or sipped over ice with citrus.

  • Great alongside charcuterie, cured meats, nutty cheeses, or even tomato-driven dishes and cooked meats 


✅ Why It Stands Out

  • Notably lighter, drier, and more elegant than many Italian counterparts .

  • Maintains its appellation-controlled authenticity, emphasizing real alpine herbs and traditional craftsmanship over sweetness 

  • Featured in The Spruce Eats’ list of best sweet vermouths of 2025 for its balanced floral, honey, and sherry flavors—ideal for cocktails without masking them
