Noilly Prat Original Dry — the original French vermouth, aged outdoors in oak by the Mediterranean since 1813.
Noilly Prat has been made in the port town of Marseillan on the French Mediterranean coast since 1813, and the method has not been rationalised since. Carefully selected local white wines are aged outdoors in oak casks — exposed to sun, sea air and the changing seasons — before being macerated with a secret blend of twenty herbs and spices sourced from around the world.
The other signature is dodinage, the hand-stirring process that marries the wine and the botanicals. Between that and the maritime influence, the result is a vermouth of real complexity: dry, elegant, with a saline thread that no indoor-aged vermouth reproduces. At 18% ABV, it is the classic Martini vermouth.
Serve with: gin, in a proper dry Martini. Equally good chilled over ice as an aperitif, alongside seafood, or used in the kitchen to lift a sauce.

Yes. Vermouth is a wine-based product and will oxidise. Keep it in the fridge and use it within a few weeks for the best flavour.
The casks sit exposed to sun, sea air and temperature swings. That slow, uneven maturation is what gives Noilly Prat its distinctive dry, slightly saline complexity.
Anywhere from a rinse to a full part depending on your taste. Given the quality here, it is worth being generous enough to actually taste it.
