Vermut - the Spanish word for vermouth - is wildly popular in Spain, with vermut bars around every bend in the major cities. This delicious vermouth is the result of four years of research, led by oenologists Toni Coca and Sílvia Pujol.
This is white vermouth with a Mediterranean character, made from fortified white Grenache wine and local aromatic plants (rosemary, thyme and fennel), balsamic plants (green anise, savoury, laurel...), macerated citrus skins (lemon, orange), roots (gentian, angelica, licorice ...), spices (cinnamon, cloves, turmeric...), and flowers (chamomile, elder, maiden...). In total, more than 30 different plants, aromatics and spices bring complexity, freshness, delicacy, a hint of bitterness, persistence and unique character.
750 mlVery fresh, full and intense entry followed by an aromatic journey, reaching a delicate bitter finale that adds persistence and character.
Food pairing - Perfect match as an aperitif, on its own, chilled, or as a complement to cocktails, anchovies, potato chips, olives, pickled vegetables and cured meats.

Coca i Fitó of Monsant in Catalunya, Spain is a small family production operated by two brothers, Toni and Miquel Coca. The brothers grew up around vineyards and eventually started making their own wines in 2006 after years of working for other cellars. Their individual talents compliment each other: Toni makes vibrant and well-defined wines, while Miquel is a true artist for design and running a wine cellar, if you notice all of the labels from Coca i Fitó are wonderfully designed by Miquel.
Montsant, like the Priorat, is a remarkably beautiful region with steep mountains that rise more than 3,300 feet above sea level. The climate is harsh: hot summers and bitter winters. The vines are planted directly on the steep hillsides, on what are called "coster" or terraces.
Toni Coca is a master in getting the most out of his grapes: mature fruit expression and structure without sacrificing freshness. It's no surprise that he is sought after as a consultant throughout the country. In fact, he works for over 15 different projects. Toni was also voted as the best winemaker in Catalunya in 2018.
The story of Jaspi wine begins in the high-elevation region of Monstant, a beautiful area within Catalunya, Spain. Here, we see beautiful summer days and mild, warm evenings, making for a perfect place to grow Garnacha, Carinena, Sira, Garnacha Blanc and Cabernet Sauvignon.
Coca i Fitó has perfectly captured the essence of Monstant. The Jaspi wines are a classic rendition of the region style, showing balanced boldness with hints of minerality. The Jaspi Negre & Maragda focus on the stunning Garnacha, Sirah and Samso, whereas the Jaspi Blanc focuses on the classic Garnacha Blanc and Macabeo. Stunning wines for an unbeatable price!

Spain's Montsant region is home to Coca i Fitó, a winery located in the municipality of El Masroig, in the southernmost part of the region, with nearly 30 hectares of vineyards sprawling across various municipalities, with brothers Tony and Miquel Coca i Fitó crafting wines full of soul and identity from these distinct terroirs. Garnacha is king in these parts, and the rugged terroir of Montsant allows the grapes to reach their full potential, much as they can in areas like Châteauneuf-Du-Pape. They also grow a fair bit of carinyena (aka carignan) and syrah, another commonality with Châteauneuf-Du-Pape.

Carpano Antica Formula stands out from all the other vermouths thanks to its unique bouquet and its unmistakable vanilla notes. First invented in 1786 in Turin by Antonio Benedetto Carpano, it has survived in its original inimitable recipe thanks to the love and the skill of Fratelli Branca Distillerie which, with its motto “Novare Serbando”, has been able to preserve the product’s original qualities and characteristics.
White wine from selected Italian grape varieties from the Romagna, Puglia and Sicily regions, processed within 24 hours of receiving to prevent oxidation.
These wines have a medium alcoholic strength that, in combination with the special production processes, brings out the flavours of the spices, herbs and roots that make up the secret recipe. The numerous aromatic plants that go into the recipe of Antica Formula are extracted by hot infusion or cold extraction methods handed down through the centuries, depending on the raw material. These methods, along with the recipe itself, constitute the secret of this product. Antica Formula stands out thanks to its unique bouquet and its unmistakable notes of the best quality VANILLA from the tropical regions of Madagascar, Papua New Guinea and Tahiti. In fact, only the beans produced by the plant, and no other derivatives, are used in the recipe. Vanilla was known in Aztec times and has appetite-stimulating and digestive properties.
