VERMOUTH

This article appears in Volume V27, Page 1029 of the Encyclopedia Britannica.

Encyclopedia Britannica - Main :: VAN-VIR
VERMOUTH , an alcoholic beverage, the basis of which consists of a fortified and aromatized
white
  wine. The best
French
  vermouth is made from the
white
  wines of the
Herault
 
district
 . The wine is fortified with spirit up to a strength of about 15% of
alcohol
 , and is then stored in casks exposed to the sun's rays for a year or two. Another portion of the wine is fortified up to a strength of about 50% of
alcohol
 , and in this various aromatic and tonic materials are macerated, in casks which are exposed to the sun in the same way as the bulk of the wine. The two liquids are then mixed in such proportions as to make the strength of the ultimate product about '7% of alcohol by volume. Excellent vermouth is also manufactured in
Italy
 , the produce of that country being generally of a " sweet," that made in
France
  of a " dry " type.
