Aperitif Wines | S1E2

May 24, 2019

Our foray into fringe wines continues this week with Aperitif (or Apéritif) wines. While these wines refuse to be boxed in when it comes to styles and ingredients, the subject can be a bucket of worms.

This episode explores, more specifically, the category of wine known as aromatized wines, including Vermouth, Quinquina, Americano and Chinato wines.
