Saison Vermouth Fallen Quinces 2023 (6 Bottles) Victoria

$345.00 GST Included

AUSTRALIA WIDE SHIPPING INCLUDED

This small-batch handmade Saison Vermouth comes from chef turned aperitif nerd, Dave Verheul.

An Australian Christmas inspired vermouth with several infusions of organic pineapple quinces from Seymour in the north of Victoria. Blended with spirit infusions of saffron, blood orange, bay leaf, dried jasmine flower and rhubarb root.

The spirit infusions are blended into the wine with two organic types of Australian wormwood and balanced out with Chef David’s caramelised quince sugar and finally the vermouth is left to age on roasted quinces. Small batch vermouth that celebrates the bounty of each season. Proudly Melbourne made.

About Saison Vermouth Wines

Not already overworked enough with his full time role as chef and co-owner of Melbourne’s Embla, Dave Verheul started making vermouth in his spare time. Initially made in tiny batches with seasonal botanicals to match with certain dishes on his menus this project soon grew in popularity.

There are many local vermouths out there, but few take their role in gastronomy as seriously as Saison, realised with the idea that vermouth can be brighter and fresher, built on singular, seasonal, ingredient-led flavour profiles.

Already a modern cult classic and essential to any self-respecting almost-wine range, these vermouths are always a pleasure to drink for the short season that each release is around.

Principal Wines

We are wine lovers with no agenda, except to work with people who grow grapes, and to put their wines into the hands of people we respect.

We bring many years’ collective experience working in restaurants and winemaking to Principal Wine and think we have a pretty good idea of how a great glass of wine tastes.

Things change all the time in the world of wine, but our core values always remain the same - to work with people who make their wine in the vineyard, to have fine wine to sell to places we’d like to drink ourselves, and to provide excellent service.
