Primitivo Quiles Red Vermouth

Señor Don Primitivo Quiles is one of the great figures of Spanish wine. His bodega in Monovar, established in 1780, is the oldest in Alicante, if not in all the comunidad Valenciana. They have been a family-owned winery for over 100 years and maintain of the oldest soleras on the market, dating back to 1892. Monastrell made in 80-year-old conofors (think dairy tanks but made of American oak). The base wine is macerated with fennel, sage, clove, and others to which alcohol is added.
