Dolin has made vermouth in Chambéry, in the French Alps, since 1821, and its Rouge is lighter and less syrupy than the Italian sweet vermouths. Dried cherry, gentle spice, and an herbal bitterness that stays in balance. This half bottle is a smart size for a home bar, since vermouth fades once opened. Use it in Manhattans and Negronis, or pour it over ice with an orange twist.
