About this bottle
L.N. Mattei Cap Corse Blanc is a traditional aperitif wine from Corsica, France — a white wine fortified with brandy and infused with local herbs and botanicals. It's aromatic and lightly sweetened, built for sipping on its own before a meal or as a base for cocktails that call for a quinquina-style aperitif wine rather than a standard dry vermouth. That herbal, brandy-fortified character sets it apart from the sweet and dry vermouths most people know, closer to a French cousin of Italian aperitif wines. The 750 ml bottle is sized for sharing over a relaxed evening rather than a single quick pour.
How to drink L.N. Mattei Cap Corse Blanc
Serve it chilled, on its own or over ice with a twist of lemon, the way it's traditionally taken before a meal in Corsica. It also works as a substitute for dry vermouth in a Martini if you want something more herbal.
