Amistà Nizza Vermouth is made using 100 percent Nizza wine. It’s just one of the elements that sets it apart from conventional vermouth for which white as a base wine and caramel is added to achieve the desire color. If you study 19th-century manuals for the production of vermouth, you’ll find that red wine was often used. Our decision to use Nizza as the base wine is a homage to the early pioneers of great vermouth.
