More Info: The base wine is made with Macabeo and Xarel·lo grapes from the Padró family’s own vines. After the first winter, they add their special red vermouth herb formula to make a base coupage which is then left to rest and evolve in barrels for between nine and twelve months. These barrels originally contained sherry, after which they were used for a time to transport wine but have now been adapted for vermouth storage.
