Knightor Rose Vermouth

Knightor base wine is the backbone of our rosé vermouth, providing ample citrus fruit characters plus all the crispness and elegance you would expect.

A fruity, easy drinking English vermouth. Aromas of citrus, violets and red fruits with a gentle herbal backdrop. The palate is as exciting as it is easy, with fruity flavours abounding followed by lingering sweet spice and bitterness. Aromatic and pleasantly bitter. 

Our favourite cocktail:

Try a Cornish Spritz! Add 50ml Knightor Rosé Vermouth to a glass of ice, top up with 50ml Soda and add a slice of orange for a light, easy-drinking aperitif that's full of botanical flavour and the finest English wines.

Winemaker notes: 

A blend of 21 herbs and spices, many picked in and around Knightor, are used in our rosé vermouth. Many classic herbs were used such as Wormwood [Artemisia absinthium], Bay [Laurus nobilis] and Fennel [Foeniculum vulgare], plus some more unusual, herein lies the key to the elegance, complexity and a little bitterness. The herbs were first infused in a fruity Eau de Vie distilled from our own grape skins. After a short steeping period, the herb infusion was blended with one of our fruity rose sparkling base wines allowed to mature and integrate for a short period before bottling.
