Guerin Vermouth Pineau des Charentes Tradition Blanc is a 17% ABV fortified wine from the Cognac region of France, made from Ugni Blanc, Colombard and Montils. It is aged a minimum of 2 years in French oak, up to 36 months. The nose opens fruity, with apricot and apricot pit, then moves to spices and the floral note of linden nectar. The palate is silky, fresh and dynamic, without harsh alcohol or overwhelming sweetness, and the finish is very long and savory.
Robert Guerin, a wine-grower in Chenac sur Gironde, began focusing on Pineau des Charentes at the end of the Second World War. His children took over the business in the early 1960s and founded the Société Puy Gaudin in 1967 with their uncle and three other wine-growers. His grandchildren and some great-grandchildren now run it, and the family describes itself as the number one producer of Pineau des Charentes. Their vermouth line grew out of that drive for innovation.
Serve chilled or in a cocktail with sparkling saké. It pairs well with triple cream cheeses, or trout or tuna tataki.
